I ran across this article linked in another forum. Interesting. I had always been told dogs see in B&W too.

I was Lways under the impression that they only saw in black and white too.

Yes I am serious. I have never seen reports on any study that has been done on the ability for dogs to see color that showed they could..

Many animals see white better than other colors. Is why horsey folk put white tags on the fence so a new horse can see it.

Altho the fences in KY are mostly black

they say horses see that color better than white even.

I asked my dogs, they said "whats color"? and run off to chase birds....

Mine use their nose to find stuff. Seems to be working.

A simple google search found this tidbit:
