Actually i'm looking at a little merle girl right now, she is a very light fawn and is 4 weeks and already her merle spots are going away. So she should be sold as a pet only I think.

If you need any advice on what to ask etc. give me a ring.

thanks - i'll keep that in mind

Make sure you do your research before spending a lot of money on a show potential puppy

Oh I forgot to say, if you go to a non show breeder make sure they know what a show potential looks like otherwise your money could be wasted.
