Hi, I'm new here. We are currently looking for a collie puppy to add to our family. Last night we went and visited with 3 from a litter (the others have been adopted or are being kept for showing purposes by the breeder). All three were males. There was one puppy that the kids liked the best - and surprisingly they all agreed!
At any rate, on to my question. I did ask about CEA when we were there and the breeder said that all her dogs/puppies are tested and they don't breed any that have bad eyes because what they are really going for are show dogs without any flaws. Okay, sounds great.
When I got home, I checked their website to show the kids the pic of the puppy they liked best and under the puppy's pic it says "mild eyes" as opposed to "normal eyes" which is what it says under the other two brothers that we saw. What does "mild eyes" mean? Is it bad? I do plan on phoning the breeder to ask this question but I can't until later today so I thought I'd ask here first.
Any info would be greatly appreciated!
