    Lilac is just the colour, not the breed. My cousins BC had a lilac pup.. gosh, it was BEAUTIFUL!!!! I love the blue BC's too.

    It's amazing how many colours there are..

    How do the brindle Border Collies come to be?

    Gosh I wish my memory was working at top speed. Aussies sometimes come in brindle, as do many other breeds, they are just really rare in most breeds & not a registered color either. I used to know... now I'll have to look that one up. I don't have much time right now but it will give me something to do tomorrow.
    Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.

    They are gorgeous! Is that done because of the designer dog trend or because its natural? Sorry to sound dumb, I've never heard of a lilac collie

    lilac is a naturally occuring colour, like sylver is a dilute chocolate in labs lilac is a dilute red in border collies. the colour should NEVER be bred for, and breeding a lilac to a lilac tends to create skin and coat problems,such as weak, burn prone skin and loss of coat.
