Default Why are some colors not allowed?
I was reading on here about how some colors are not allowed by the AKC I think it was. Colors like Tri, liver and all white. I dont understand why though. They are pretty, my white one used to look like a doggie angel when she was sleeping. Does anyone know why they dont allow certain colors? Like liver? Whats wrong with that color?

Ukc and Adba won't allow the merle color and is considered a major fault because the gene leads to deafness. And some people believe all white animals are more prone to deafness as well. Don't know about the liver or Tri though.

the merle thing has more to do with the fact that many believe that merle isnt even in the gene pool so if the dog is merle than it isnt 100% apbt.
