Interesting read! ๐๐พ
Just one of the random things we end up chatting about while the dogs are being pampered! ๐ You learn something new every day! ๐ถโ๏ธ
๐พ ๐ Today we were discussing what colours dogs can see, so we decided to have a look at the subject! ๐
Have you ever wondered what colours your dog can actually see?
Dogs donโt see the world in black and white, but they do see colours differently from us.
Their vision is dichromatic, which means blue ๐ and yellow ๐ are the colours they see most clearly.
๐ต Blue โ easy to see
๐ก Yellow โ easy to see
๐ฃ Purple โ tends to appear blue
๐ด Red โ can appear brownish/grey
๐ข Green โ can appear yellowish/grey
๐ Orange โ can look yellowish/brown
This is particularly interesting when choosing toys! ๐พ
A bright red toy on green grass might look really obvious to us, but to your dog the two colours can blend together. A blue or yellow toy is much easier for them to spot.
Something to think about next time youโre wondering why your dog canโt find the toy thatโs literally right in front of them! ๐๐ถ
What colour is your dogโs favourite toy? ๐
