Is It Safe To Breed A Red Tri Mis-Marked Australian Shepherd?

by Candace


I have a red tri mis-marked Australian Shepherd. I know much about the breed and the standards. But still puzzled on if a mismarked tri is safe to breed.

He has a perfect bill of health, and parents were NOT two merles. I just know about the excessive white gene being passed on. So I was curious if it was still safe.

You could breed him and the puppies would be healthy! The only thing is since he is a mismark some of the puppies would be mismarks too.

I hope this helps!

Short answer yes, but please don't. Mismarks are discouraged for a reason. Please don't perpetuate the problem.
