My dogs eyes are different colors, is that normal?

Question

I have a boston terrier that has a blue eye and a brown eye.

Answer 1

It's uncommon but not unhealthy.

Answer 2

Sometimes that happens. Most puppies with this eye thing have one of their mothers eye and one of their dads eye. Don't worry, this doesn't threaten your dog.

Answer 3

Blue eyes are known in Boston Terriers; however they are a disqualifying fault:

This is because the coloration, and the genes that cause it, are linked with genetic deafness. Read #9, here:

Answer 4

Not normal but it does happen.  Very cool!  Cyborg dog. lol

Answer 5

Pretty sure that's a "fault" in the Boston Terrier breed standard.  It's not "normal" in that it's uncommon.

Answer 6

I had a mixed dalmatian.  He had a blue/black eye and brownish/white eye.  So, I think it is normal as long as they have 20/20 vision, hehehe.

Answer 7

It is not uncommon for dogs to have different eye color.

It is unusual for a Boston Terrier to have different eye colors though.

Are you sure there was not a cross breed in his background somewhere in his lines? That could be one reason.

Another reason is that there may be something wrong with the eye like blindness. I know dog's who have blues eyes, esp. if it is not a trademark in their breed, tend to go blind.
