A double merle is the result of merle to merle breeding. Each puppy in a merle to merle litter stands a 25% chance of being a double merle. Two copies of the merle gene most often leave a dog with very little pigmentation. This lack of pigmentation in certain areas can cause the hearing and sight to not develop properly. Merle to merle litters come from greed, carelessness, or most often, ignorance. Educate those you know, advocate for double merles in need, and promote only responsible breeding
