Arabesques (or any other mutation) can not produce a dominant animal. Animals are not dominant or co-dominant, the mutation they carry is. Animals are heterozygous or homozygous.

You are right though, in the idea you were trying to get across. Arabesques have not been proven to have a distinct super form, although homozygous Arabesques likely resulted from Steve Hammond's breeding. As a result the mutation is a dominant mutation, since the homozygous and heterozygous forms are alike.
