Sheltie Color Inheritance

My goal for this page is to see it used as a staple and guide to the coloring found in this wonderful breed.

Please realize that, while many colors will be identified and defined on this page, not all are acceptable to the breed standard.

The Basic Colors

There are two basic coat colors in shelties: brown and black. All other colors are dilutions (such as blue and sable merles), variations (such as Color Headed Whites), or mutations of these basic colors.

All colors do exhibit white markings. This has not always been so.
