Border Collies come in several different colours combinations. Red and White, which is a golden colour. Blue and White, ranging from a steel grey to a soft grey. Tri Colour which is a combintation of Tan and Black and White and the Blue Merle which is quite different with the coat colour appearing motley in design. Any colour combination other than black and white is classed as a dilute gene.
