Is the Merle Am Cocker Spaniel
A valid color/pattern?
Has
it been around for many generations
or
was it "introduced" by possibly another breed?
Was it a just a mutation
that just happened?
Read the story of the
Merle Cocker
NEW!
Read a letter
that we received about merle cockers in the 1950's
This site's purpose
is for informed education regarding the
Merle
Cocker Spaniel
Merles
are here to stay but
many
are being registered
thanks
to certain colors
not
being allowable through the parent club
in
alarming frequency
as
ROANS..which
they are not.
This site will help you to
determine the difference
between a roan and a merle,
as well as other infomation
regarding the merle
and what needs to be done
about getting this pattern
recognized
by ASC and AKC.
It's
up to YOU to
decide the rest
