Dog Myth or Fact - Episode 1: Are Dogs COMPLETELY Colorblind? Ever wondered if your furry friend sees the world in shades of grey? 🐶Let’s debunk this myth! While dogs don’t see the full spectrum of colors like humans, they’re not completely colorblind either. Dogs have dichromatic vision, which means they can distinguish between certain colors, particularly blue and yellow. 💙💛 Here’s the science behind it: Humans have three types of cone cells in their eyes, allowing us to see a wide range of colors. Dogs, on the other hand, have only two types of cone cells, which limits their color perception to vibrant blues and yellows! However, dogs do have more rod cells, making them far better at seeing in the dark and at detecting movement. And there’s more! Dogs have a special feature in their eyes called the tapetum lucidum, a reflective layer behind the retina. This enhances their night vision by reflecting light back through the retina, making those nighttime fetch sessions a bit easier for them.
