Eye Color Speaks Volumes About Your Dog’s Temperament

Most dogs have brown eyes – but not when they were born. In young puppies, the eye color is often blue at first. In just a few weeks, your dog will gradually develop the correct eye color. And this can provide information about the temperament of the dog.

Dog eye color is often genetic, so certain eye colors are more common in some dog breeds than others. In the same way, certain temperamental traits are assigned to different breeds of dogs.

Even if, of course, at least as many external influences – such as socialization and experience as a puppy – determine your dog’s personality: eye color can at least provide clues about what your four-legged friend will be like.

Brown Eyes in a Dog

If a dog has brown eyes, according to Heart for Animals, it is especially loyal, gentle, and full of character. Above all, with a loving and consistent paw, they develop their complete devotion to their owner.

Dog with Blue Eyes

Looking into a dog’s blue eyes can be almost hypnotic. When a dog wears this eye color, it is considered a strong character who enjoys challenging tasks. Blue-eyed dogs love to be busy. If they get bored, they look for a task for themselves – and this does not always give the owner pleasure. So make sure your dog is physically and mentally busy.

Green Eyes in a Dog

Dogs with green eyes are very rare – many people have never seen a dog with this color of eyes. Perhaps that is why they are considered mysterious, reserved, and cautious. Once you gain their trust, they will be as loyal as any other dog.

Dogs with Multi-Colored Eyes

Like humans, dogs can have two different colors of eyes. In most cases, one eye is blue and the other is brown. This phenomenon is typical for the following dog breeds: Australian Shepherd Dog, Australian Shepherd Dog, Dalmatian, and Siberian Husky.

Due to its special eye color, the dog is usually considered a true entertainer who loves to attract the attention of his people with gimmicks or pranks.

Do you recognize your dog by eye color? If not: don’t worry. Even if the color of the eyes can be combined with genetic characteristics, your dog will and will remain unique!
