What dog breeds have blue tongue?
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.

Contrary to a popular myth, having a purple tounge does not indicate the dogs breed in any way. Purple, blue, and black spottings on the tounge/mouth (ans sometimes covering the whole toungue), are nothing more then large deposits of melanin, much like a freckle. It can be found in every breed of dog, albeit some are more suspectable such as labs and chows. The coloring does not effect the dogs health in any way.

Black cattle like Angus, or cattle with dark pigment (Jerseys, British White, Speckle Park, White Park, etc. ) tend to have black-pigmented tongues. Even Holsteins may have black tongues, but usually only if the rest of their face/muzzle is black. However they can also have tongues colored black and pinkish-beige. Other cattle that are not black or dark-pigmented typically have pinkish-beige to light-pinkish tongues. Tongues appear more pink with white cattle or cattle with white faces than those that are brown or solid red in coat colour.
