Australian Shepherd Red Merle Charakter. He is a loyal companion and has the stamina to work all aussie coats offer different looks, including merle (a mottled pattern with contrasting shades of blue or red). The australian shepherd is an intelligent working dog of strong herding and guarding instincts.

Despite the risks, unscrupulous (or uneducated breeders) will still breed two merle dogs because they want to profit from the healthy puppies in the litter.

Cute funny puppy australian shepherd. On all colors the areas surrounding the ears and eyes are dominated by color other than white. Butterfly nose should not be faulted under one year of age. Coat colors include blue merle, black, red merle (liver), solid red with or without white markings and/or tan (copper) points, with no order of preference.
