Do Cardigan Welsh corgis usually have blue eyes?
Blue eyes aren't the usual look for a Cardigan Welsh corgi, which typically has dark-colored eyes. However, striking baby blues can appear with merle-colored coats because the merle pattern gene causes areas of reduced pigment in the coat, which can also affect pigment development in the eyes.
In fact, a Cardigan can have one blue eye, two blue eyes, or an eye that is partially blue because there's less pigment in the iris. Blue eyes are more often associated with merle Cardigan Welsh corgis rather than being a typical feature across the entire breed. So, for Cardigans with other coat colors, blue eyes aren't the norm because the feature only comes with the genetic process behind the merle coat's distinctive patches and swirls. That's why those icy blue eyes are an eye-catching part of what makes some merle-coated Cardigan Welsh corgis, like adorable Finn, so distinctive — and unforgettable!
