Dogs most definitely are not color blind including Labrador retrievers . There are some differences in their vision from that of humans, but -- contrary to popular myth, their eyes contain both rods (cells that detect light and movement but not color) and cones (which detect color and need more light than rods do in order to activate).

In a sense, yes. Dogs, labs included, can see color, but not to the same degree humans can. While we have three pigments for detecting color, dogs only have two. When this condition arises in humans it is considered a form of color blindness.
