The way our eyes interpret colors is via the useage of cones. Humans have three cones, and thus we interpret the colors blue, red, and yellow. Dog's typically only have two, and can only see blues and yellows. It's just like a human who is colorblind!

This means while you are seeing red, orange, yellow, green, light blue, dark blue, and violet when you look at a rainbow, your dog is seeing black, dark yellow, light yellow, white, light blue, blue, and dark blue.
