Can dogs see in color?
Dogs do see colors. However, canine cones account for only 10% of their fundic photoreceptors. Two distinct types of canine cones are known to exist. The first is maximally sensitive to violet light, and the second is maximally sensitive to yellow-green light. The color visual spectrum perceived by dogs is therefore divided into two hues, blue-violet and green-yellow. The remaining orange-red range of the visual spectrum is probably perceived as yellow. Dogs fail to differentiate green, yellow, orange or red objects. Dogs also fail to differentiate blue-green from gray objects. The color vision of dog therefore strongly resembles human red-green color blindness.
