    She's quite pretty, I've never seen a white Great Dane before, either.

    Lovely! Thanks for stopping to take a photo. So unusual, bet her mom gets lots of questions as she walks her dogs.

    With no pigment in her nose I too wonder if she's a lethal merle?

    She's beautiful no matter!

    I did some looking around after I saw her and from what I could find, a white can be the result of a harlequin and mantle merle crossing. All that I could find were deaf or had eye problems though and I think would be considered a lethal white.


    ETA: I found this that explains more http://www.gdca.org/health/deafness.htm

    Yes.. if he is the result of a merle x merle breeding he could be a double dilute (double merle or lethal white).... those can have hearing and vision problems but not all lethal whites/double dilutes/double merles (whatever you wanna call them) have these problems.... I know with Collies (shelties, aussies any breeds with merles really), some double dilutes can even be born without eyes...
    If you're gonna breed Collies, don't you forget to breed in the brains and common sense. Without that you won't have a Collie, you'll have just another dog.
