blue merle poodles?
One bright night in the middle of the day on Sat, 12 Aug
2006 18:26:11 -0400, in rec.pets.dogs.breeds elegy wrote: is this possible or do these guys have to have something like aussie wandering around in their lineage? http://www.blue-merle-poodle.com/index.html From the above site: "The next litter that may contain merles is due July 14, 2006. The expectant parents are Terragethen Lola and Terragethen Justice Timber. (Lola is Portia's mother and carries the merle gene.)" ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Someone (Liisa? Chris?) correct me if I'm wrong. But I've always gone on the assumption that merle could not be "carried." If a dog has the merle gene, it is merle. Yes? No? In either case, the section I quoted above contains a link to "Lola" who supposedly carries merle. That link leads to a photo of an obviously white Poodle. Double dilute perhaps? I don't know. The pigment seems awfully black for that, but... Anyone want to comment? *~ *~ *~ Karen C. Spammers be damned! I can't be emailed from this account! So there... "You have no power here! ...Be gone! Before somebody drops a house on you too!" |
