No (although rough collies don't come in "red merle;" they come in sable merle, though it can be difficult to tell an adult is a merle). In general, however, if you mate two merles, the litter will wind up including an average of 25% homozygous merles, which will usually be excessively white and have a high probability of being deaf and blind.

How do you create a blue merle pitbull?
First of all you need to have an american pitbull terrier that carries the merle gene, and there is no way of knowing if a pitbull carries the gene unless the merle pattern is displayed on it's coat or you have the blood line record, the reason is because the merle gene is receive. If you don't have the blood line record then you absolutely need one of the parents to be merle and it doesn't matter if it's a red, chocolate, or blue merle and the other parent needs to be blue and you will produce blue merles. Of course if you have a blue merle and a blue you will produce more blue merles but if you have a red or chocolate merle and a blue you will not produce as many blue merles. Typically a breeding pair that has one of the parents being merle will produce an average of about three merles per litter, that is what my females have produced out of breeding with my red merle male three to four merles per litter. Remember you can not breed two merles together because you will produce dogs with defects.

Why is the border collie black and white?
Not all border collies are black and white. Black and white is the most common combination. However, these dogs are also red andwhite (anywhere from lightest tan to vibrant red to rich brown), tri-color (black, white and light brown tan); and also possible is the rare "merle" coloring which can be described as a mottled or speckled color and can vary in color from red to blue. Their coat can be short, know as a smooth coat, to full and long, know as a rough coat, and anywhere in between. What truly distinguishes a border collie from other "pretty" dogs is its incredible intelligence and drive. Beauty and brains!
