Shame on the person who knowingly bred a blue born dog... People like that who knowingly perpetuate a problem just make me tired.
True the blue born is not a puppy that is correct. Although I intend to go add to my site on that particular article when through here as I believe with the improvements we have made in the breed with texture, etc that not as many end up with the severe skin disorders but they are extremely sparse coated which tends to bring other issues into play and no one should breed on the disorder. I sure would not buy one and chance the inherit problems though.

Now looking at the picture above it didn't look blue, it looked black. But pictures can sure fool us.
