Is it true that dogs can see the color blue?
Yes. One reference source states dogs have two cone types sensitive to blue and green light and can distinguish blue from yellow wavelengths, and a 2024 peer-reviewed study of free-ranging dogs found they discriminated blue from yellow objects. Together these support that dogs can see the color blue.
