Is My Yellow Mini Aussie a Tri or a Merle?

by Jennifer
(Orange Park, FL)


I have a yellow Mini Aussie. She is 9 years old. I am trying to determine if she is a yellow merle or a yellow tri Mini Aussie. I've never been clear about that. I've attached her photo. Both of her eyes have a light blue line at the bottom of each eye. Does that make her a tri or a merle?

Thank for your response.

Not a Merle

Does your fur baby have 2 or 3 colors on it? If two, it’s a bi. If it’s 3, it’s a tri. But it’s not a merle.
