Is dogs red-green blind? Of course not. Dogs only have two types of color blindness, red and green, but they are not true "color blindness", but a situation with low color sensitivity. Dogs can see red and green, but they cannot see and distinguish more colors, such as blue, yellow, etc.

Dogs are red-green blind. This is because there are only two types of cones in the dog's retina, which can only feel yellow and blue, so that it cannot distinguish between red and green, but this does not mean that the world in the dog's eyes is black and white, and they can still distinguish some colors.

The dog's eyes should be taken good care of. When it is found that the dog often scratches the eyes with its paws, sheds tears, cataracts, protruding third eyelids or colored secretions, it is recommended to seek medical treatment as soon as possible. When using any product containing alcohol, avoid touching the dog's eyes.
