Coyote's (dogs) are not completely color blind. However, they do not have the same color vision as humans and it has been noted they cannot tell the difference between red and green. The reason for this is that there are only two kinds of color receptors in the retinas of their eyes. Humans have three kinds of color cells, with three different receptor molecules sensitive to blue, greenish-yellow, and red, dogs only have receptors for yellow and greenish-blue.

Canine eyes also lack another human trait the 'fovea'. an area especially dense with detailing-sensing cells. As a result, their detail vision is not as good as ours. But they make up for this by having much better night vision and greater sensitivity to movement.

No, blue eyes is ONLY A DOG TRAIT. No pure wolf has blue eyes, only when they're very young, like about 3 months old.

Is a carrier for colorblindness is colorblind?

Not necessarily. The allele for colorblindness is recessive. For a female, in order to be colorblind she must have to recessive alleles for colorblindness. Example: XcXc would be colorblind. XCXc would be a carrier for colorblindness, but not colorblind. For a male, because colorblindness is a sex-linked gene, he only needs one allele to be colorblind. Example: XcY is colorblind. XCY is not colorblind.
