Best Answer

There are breeds that have Blue or Black tongues. Chow Chow and Shar Pei are the dogs that genetically have blue/black tongues.

There is a disease called Blue tongue disease which only affects hoofed animals and does not affect dogs.

But if you are referring to the dog's tongue turning blue because lack of oxygen circulating through the body this is called Cyanosis. This is very serious and the dog would need to see a vet right away to be put on oxygen and then for diagnoses to be run to find out the cause so it may be treated.

No, Blue-Tongues have no venom or poison at all, they can only bite your dog, which will probably result in your dog killing the blue tongue. I have no idea why people think they are poisonous, but your dog will probably kill the lizard if they are together. Don't put blue tongues with dogs

Why is your dog blue?

There are two ways I can think of that a dog can be "blue" - blue coat color or blue coloring of the mucus membranes. If your dog has a blue coloration to the gums and tongue, he is running out of oxygen in his blood and needs immediate medical attention to prevent death. In the other case, there are certain breeds of dog that have a "blue roan" or "blue merle" coloring, which is achieved through genes that blend black, gray and white hairs in a pattern that gives the overall impression of a dusky, muted blue. This is normal for some dogs.


What animals have a blue tongue?

If blue spots appear on the dog's tongue i recommend to directly contact your vet. Chow-chows, and mixes of this and a few other breeds have these naturally. If they have always had them , I wouldn't be too concerned, just mention it at your next Vet visit.If the spots are growing noticeably, or are a recent development, by all means , go to the Vet ASAP.
