Blue Merle Australian Shepherd

Blue Merle Australian Shepherd

Blue merle is a striking color which is made up of black spots of various sizes on a gray background. The shades of gray can range from light silver to dark smoke, and the black spots can be small specks to very large patches, creating a wide variety of interesting combinations. Blue merle Aussies may also have white markings on faces, chests, legs, and under parts. Copper points are also commonly seen on the face and legs. Aussies may be solid blue merle, blue merle and white, or blue merle, copper and white. Blue merle Aussies frequently have one or both eyes that are blue, or partially blue with marbling or flecks of blue and brown.
