Color eyes standard

Sorry JoT, I thought I had read something that had said something about the eye color and brightness of the sun, however I cannot find anything to support what I have said. I may have mis-interpreted the text. It is not my intention to spread false information.

Ayo has hazel eyes, a little on the light side I would say. I don't thinkmit looks bad, I wish he had a darker rim around them though, that I think is more important on basenjis..

Thanks for your answers! will post some photos. Just looking a site to upload .

yes, photos will help. My African village dog, Wheat has yellow eyes. She came from the Congo.

The dog they THINK is Cara's sire has blue eyes. Very striking but sorry, I wouldn't breed them. Guess too many years with Rotties, I like dark eyes. Cara's are light brown.

Aren't blue eyes in basenjis a sign of PPM or such

Two different things, when a puppy's eyes first open, if there is excessive PPM they will have what looks to be a blue film over the eye.
Dogs with blue eyes like Huskie's are natural. While pretty rare in Basenjis, blue eyes in dogs is natural in many breeds.

Some of the Wimauma older pups had beautiful golden-hazel eyes, quite striking. One female had a very dark 'mahogany' coat and her golden eyes were a knockout, visually stunning.
Not for breeding, obviously, certainly not 'standard' but gorgeous in her own right.
Chipley's eyes are very dark, I wish they were more hazel, for contrast! -
My boy who is almost 5 has one bluish eye. He does have PPM and other eye problems in that eye so he is basically blind in that eye. He is a rescue who will probably be staying permanently with me. If I ever can make it to a national, I can let people see him. I could not make it to the National this year because the car dealership screwed up the ignition recall for my van-first it was a defective part and then the second time they ordered the wrong part! Robin did see him during the lure coursing event at the National in Lexington, KY a few years ago.

In Oakleys litter some of the pups eyes were lighter hazel in color, I am fond of the way it looks and think it's striking but agree that the standard is the darker the better… Oakley has dark eyes buy wouldn't have minded at all if they were light
