It's most common in Australian Shepherds and Border Collies. With that said, it's one of my favorite "colors" on a dog -- I just think it's soooo pretty! http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...blue_merle.jpg |
I have to agree with everything you said especially the part when you said its your favorite color on a dog... I think its just beautiful!! I especially love the different colored eyes personally... But i don't think its normal at all for a YORKIE to be merle.
