So when I got my pups they both had brown eyes. I've been noticing Belvederes eye change and now he has one blue eye. Is that a fault?? It's beautiful either way. Just wondering.







It's hard to tell but that eye is a bluish green it's not only a reflection.

Now its still a serious fault if eyes aren't the same color.

Eyes- All colors equally accepted except blue eyes which is a fault and albinism (pinkish to red), which is a disqualification. Lack of pigment around the eyes is undesirable. Eye shape is oval to slightly roundish, low down in skull and set far apart. Visibility of the haw should be minimal.
Faults: Blue eyes. Overly visible haw.
Serious Faults: Both eyes not matched in color.

I see what you are talking about now! Looks like Parti-eye. Its more common in Wolf Hybrids and Huskies and I'm not sure if it occurs in other breeds besides maybe ones that carry Merle. But its when one eye is a combination of 2 colors.



Who knows though

Yea my red merle Aussie has a half yellow and half blue eye but that is acceptable for them and it is linked to Merle bloodlines. I trust my breeder though so I know they aren't carrying merle genes. It's just odd that it popped up on him. It's really noticable too. Unfortunately it's a fault regardless. Blue eyes are a fault and non matching eyes are a serious fault.

Princesspaola21,

I fully understand your disappointment but your pup is so young and there is always a possibility that his eyes are just changing and will both be the same color again. Fingers crossed for you. If all else fails there are always color contact lenses. LOL. Just trying to cheer you up.

The merle thing is what I was thinking. I don't think merle shows on a fawn coat? But a "broken" eye would be an indicator. I'm not sure if that's the kind of trait that shows up at birth or grows in. And I've also never seen a broken or split eye that wasn't ice blue, where this is more like blue-green. Interesting. Bears researching.

I know someone who has a UKC dog and the dog is blue brindle with the green eyes that many blue dogs have but at around 4 months he started getting a brown spot in his eye. Eventually he ended up having about 1/3 of his eye brown from this spot and the other 2/3 is still green.

It's interesting that is for sure... I thought I saw in one of your fb pics that his eye looked lighter than the other! But I figured maybe i was seeing things!

Yea that's how it started. I kept noticing in pictures that one eye didnt look the same but in person it didnt show. I finally held him down and just stared at it and now it gets more prominent every day.
