C128-Canine Coat and Nose Color Test
Border Collie |
|
DNA TEST |
Presence of black, brown (red) and true red coat colors, and black and brown nose Nose color matches the primary color. The Border Collie appears in many colors, with various combinations of patterns and markings. The most common color is black with or without the traditional white blaze, collar, stockings, and tail tip, with or without tan points. However, a variety of primary body colors is permissible. The sole exception is being all white. Solid color, bi-color, tri-color, merle, and sable dogs are judged equally with dogs having traditional markings. Color and markings are always secondary to physical evaluation and gait. |
