Is there any chance that blue eyes in sable merles will ever be allowed to show in AKC?

I'm going to try my girl in UKC but there's not a lot of it around here.
 
I doubt it, The AKC approves the standard written by the parent club which is the ASSA. They (ASSA)frown upon CHW's so I am going to say Hades will freeze over before blue eyes are allowed..:lol:
 
Keep in mind, as pointed out to me a few years ago, it is only a fault. One fault. It is not a disqualifying fault. It is not so heavily penalized as to eliminate any possibility of winning. If otherwise the dogs virtues are exceptional, and there aren't any other major faults, it technically should not keep a dog from competing. I am sure though that there are judges out there though who would refuse to put up a sable merle with blue eyes.
It is no worse than showing a dog with a bad front, weak rear, cow hocks, short upper arm, gay tail, etc
