While many puppies are born with blue eyes, this is usually just a temporary phase. The true eye color of a puppy usually develops between 8 and 16 weeks of age.
Here's why:
* Pigment development: The pigment melanin, which determines eye color, takes time to fully develop in puppies.
* Breed differences: Some breeds, like Huskies, are known for keeping their blue eyes throughout their lives. Others, like Golden Retrievers, typically have brown eyes.
So, while a puppy's blue eyes might seem adorable, they're not necessarily an indicator of their final eye color.
