People Who Expressed Interest in my Heelers- Update on Post #786

This genetic defect occurs when two merle coloured dogs are bred. It doesn't matter if they are blue merle or red merle the key here is that the puppies inherit two dominant merle genes (MM). This double whammy of the merle gene results in a homozygus merle or double merle puppy often referred to as a lethal white.

I didn't know cattle dogs could be lethal whites because there really isn't a "merle" cattle dog, they are all spotted.

I was just looking at this picture and noticed that the puppy circled has a lot of the same markings on his face as mine does. Do you think they'll look anything alike?

 

[Buster]

They may, yours will be very red. If I remember right, he was my favorite pup out of that whole litter as far as markings went. Full mask and all. I really like the full masks.

Good, I was hoping to get a nice red one. I like the full masks too, it some how makes their face look better

So they'll be 8 weeks July 14th, right? So that means that day or anytime after that he can be shipped. I'm counting down the days..38 more left :|

 

[Buster]

Actually they will be 8 weeks old on June 9th because of the extra days at the ends of the months. So you actually only have 33 days left!

 

[perfectly_polish]

that's 5 days left.

I don't know how I'm going to surrive that long...maybe you can give them growth hormone

Ok, it's been almost another week. Here are some more pics for you people who need a pup pic fix. (say that 10 times fast.)

It's really unfair to post such cute puppy pics every week. I might have to push the report button cause they're too cute
