* Coat color:
* Black Labs: Usually have brown eyes, although some may have amber eyes.
* Yellow Labs: Can have brown, amber, or even green eyes. The shade of yellow on their coat can provide a hint. Lighter yellow Labs tend to have lighter colored eyes.
* Chocolate Labs: Usually have brown eyes, although some may have amber eyes.
* Parents' eye color: If you know the eye color of the parents, you can use this as a guide. While not guaranteed, there is a higher probability of the puppy inheriting similar eye color.
Important to remember:
* Eye color can change: A puppy's eye color can change over the first few weeks and months of life. So, don't be surprised if they start with blue eyes and then they darken.
* Breed standards: The Labrador Retriever breed standard does not specify eye color. All colors are acceptable as long as they are healthy.
It's best to wait and see what color your puppy's eyes develop into. The fun is in watching them change!
