Before you call
A merle Australian Shepherd is a Australian Shepherd with that coat color, not a separate breed. Ask the breeder about the colors of both parents and their health tests.
- Health results for both parents. Good Australian Shepherd breeders test for hips, elbows, an eye exam and DNA tests for MDR1, CEA and PRA, and show you the paperwork.
- See the mother with the litter, in person or on a live video call, not only photos.
- A real breeder asks you questions about your home and schedule, and often has a waitlist.
- Never wire money or pay with gift cards or crypto before you have seen the puppy. That is how most puppy scams work.
