This is amazing - not that dogs differ in their visual capabilities and the
structure of their eyes, but that it's been a biological "dog"ma for so
many years that their eyes were all the same!


Not to me. I have often wondered how could they possibly
know if dogs don't see in colors. Come to find out they do.


When you think about it, given the selective breeding of dogs and the wide
variations in other body structures, I guess it's not so surprising to find
differences in their eyes. I presume this extends to other parts of their
visual systems, as well - like the neural "wiring" of the connections
between eyes and visual cortex.

What's next? Doggie hearing? Scent-sory structures and capabilities?
