Dolce has two different eye colors!

If the pups eyes have not been examined by an opthalmologist, I would definitely have it done. It depends on the type of PPM the dog has. My boy has PPM and other eye problems in one eye. He is an interesting case for the opthalmologists. He was highly wanted by the commercial breeders at the dog auctions because of his blue eye and I had to pay a lot more for him than his other littermates! He was almost 3 months old. Thank goodness he did not go to a breeder.

I don't think this is PPM Jennifer, I think it is really a blue colored eye. If you look at the pictures posted there is no sign of excession PPM. But I would still want the pup checked by an Ophthalmologist before I got the pup. Having eyes checked for responsible breeders is a pretty normal thing. Have you talked to Pam about eye exams?

When Bowie was a pup, the bluish color was over his entire eye and it looked like he did have a blue eye. The auctioneer and even the vet at the auction thought he had a blue eye. His sire and dam and none of his littermates had blue or bluish eyes. Since I was not able to hold him and get a good look at his eyes before the sale, I assumed it was PPM and he did not actually have a blue eye. As he got older, the PPM-bluish color diminished in size. The PPM-bluish color moves and some days I have to really look for it and other days I can see it more clearly. It is the strangest thing.

Arwen, in the light, thanks to PPM has blue strands you can clearly see. The specialist from UGA said the amount of strands were "impressive" and he hadn't seen that extensive in many years. Fortunately none were in a position to be of future worry but I spayed her in spite of the breeder saying it wasn't a problem (same breeder who lied and said their eyes were all examined and she had NO PPM prior to my getting her). Anyway, yeah, not the same.
Do you have pics of the pup when small and now?
