is that rrue only merles produce merles?

yes one of the parents must have the merel gene to produce merels,they dont have to merel in coulour them selfs once they have the gene in them theres a good chance they will throw merel pups.

wrong...

one of the parents HAVE to be merle ... FACT

snipe must be a phantom merle ...

if a dog only had to carry the merle gene as you say to produce merles , dont you think the border collie would be f**cked as a breed as breeding 2 merles together produces bad pups ..

so tell me this then .. you breed a litter of pups all are merle apart from one .. you shouldnt breed a merle to a merle yet you can breed the none merle pup in that litter to a merle without problems ...

 

dogs are either merle or there not ... FACT bet if you had a close look at snipe you would find a evidence of him being merle

i cba to argue .. but if bred its not definatly going to carry the gene off the merle it does not carry every gene a parent gives on 50/50 so make not carry form the merle side

here is another one for you to make it a bit clearer... breed 2 merle borders together (so you have merle on both sides so you cant say they threw to the none merle parent) take a black dog/bitch out of that litter and then breed it you wont get merles , why??? cause its either merle or its not they dont carry a merle gene

You can only get a merle coloured animal,. from a Merle...
