When we were at petsmart for the adoption days, a couple of the aussie fathers were there. All white, and were deaf. But the coolest thing was, they knew sign language.
I was in complete awe, these dogs knew at least 30 words in sign language. And they were just learning. They said deafness in the all white aussies is common.

It is a genetic issue when they breed two merles I believe. They can be deaf and/or blind and they primarily are born all white as you said.

had one growing up. she was a very loyal dog to me and my brother. however, she was very territorial. didn't like anyone to drive up the drive way. she bit tires as the cars rolled up. she bit people a time or two. loved to chase cars as they passed the house on the street. misjudged an 18 wheeler one day. she went to dog heaven.
