the sheep selected to carry Dolly possessed genetic traits such that the hair color was a combination of two different colors. Dolly, on the other hand, carry genes for just white hair color. So, had Dolly been born with any other color hair than pure white, she would not have been a clone. The surrogate was specifically chosen for multi-hair color as that would serve as a visual genetic marker for judging if Dolly was a true clone or the surrogate's offspring.
