Jennifer, double merles have the potential to develop many problems, not the least of which are sight and hearing problems. Where did you get your dog from? Do you have a picture of him/her?

Hi, Jennifer,

There have recently been a few discussions of merles and double merles on the BC boards. Here is one of the threads you might find interesting, but you can find other ones by searching that forum, too: http://www.bordercollie.org/boards/inde ... =15223&hl= . Good luck with your dog--I hope he or she avoids the problems that are common to double merles.
