Thank you :hail: It's back up with some changes. Have a look when you get a chance. I'm adding some more pictures also. We just exported 2 pups to Canada and the new owner is elated! We were pretty excited too, to be exporting yet two more Coolies to a fantastic home.

Can you post the link so everyone can go see? :)

Rootbeer - go here for *better* look at the German Coolie http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Coolies , also see: http://www.wikifido.com/page/German+Coolie . The dogs named *Australian Koolie* are the not the same as the authentic German Coolie. The foundation dogs for the Australian Koolie...

Not really off topic ... :) The Australian Coolie breeders do not have a standard; and according to the Koolie Club of Australia, are not going to implement one anytime soon. So, the Coolies are very diverse in their appearance. The KCA also registers anything that is merle in color. Having...

My question was basically just one of color. You see, I'm a gene major and i don't understand how you can possibly get merle pups all of the time without breeding double merles. You're speaking of Toolalla Coolies - they (mainly Tabitha Parker) LIE and say they never produce double merles and...

Really? I never knew that. I like Shelties, but have never had one and have never deeply researched the breed. My friend, who is an avid Sheltie owner and shower, is probably laughing at me about now. :lol-sign:

Weeeeell, not exactly. Excessive white really means a dog is white factored, as in - being either pie bald or an extreme pie bald color. Not trying to step on toes.

The only way to produce the "Leopard" color, which is a merle - is if one parent IS a merle. Maybe the excessive white you are referring to is a homozygous/double merle. :)

Actually, this is not entirely accurate. The Australian Shepherd is a herding bred dog, and was used exclusively as a herding dog until it became the popular show dog. That breed is as much merle as it is bi's and tri's. The same with the Border Collie. Chocolate, blue (dilute black) and...

:lol-sign: Nate would LOVE any opportunity to run full blast all the time. I can give you directions!!! And I'm serious. :)

Hi, Thank you so very much for the compliment - I am the breeder. Absolutely, email anytime, I'd love to talk to you. [email protected] :)

I know this is a little late, but if you want to read some on the Coolie genetics (which is the same for all other breeds) and see some pictures of some really pretty Coolies, go to my genetics website at: http://www.germancoolies.com/Coolie_Coat_Colors.html or here if you want to go straight...
