Humans have three types of cells present in the eyes that help in perceiving colors.
- They help in distinguishing red, blue, and green colors.
Dogs have only 2 types of cells.
- Their retinas aren't able to understand certain colors.
- They have less sensitivity towards brightness.
- The blue color is easily visible to dogs.
- There's a common misconception that dogs see in black and white, but this in fact is not true !
- They face difficulty to differentiate between the shades of red and green due to the absence of specific cone cells in their eyes.

- They just can't see as many colors as their handlers. This is because dogs only have two kinds of color-detecting cells (or cones) within their retinas.
- And like people with red-green colorblindness, dogs perceive colors differently than humans with normal color vision.
