Moosmom - Blue merle is a coat pattern. Black patches on a grey/blue background. There can also be red merle, and a dilute form of both colors. It is usually accompanied by rust colored and white markings on the legs and face. Merle can be found in many breeds. Here are some pictures.

Welcome. What cute pups you have.

Are you a breeder? I was wondering whow the mom & dad are to the new litter? Do you show them?
