I always have people call or e-mail interested in a puppy. They will say, "I would like an Aussies!" When I ask if there is a specific color most say, "I don't know what colors do the come in?" So I found a wonderful link to help you in knowing all the different coat variations. Be warned there are a lot :)
The colors below are the only recognized breed standard colors. Any other color is not recognized by registering groups. ie dilutes, yellow, sable, & brindles.
Here is a link to a great website along with photos.
