Dogs do in fact see "in color", as shown by the fact that a dog's eye contains both rods (which we associate with B/W vision) and cones (which differentiate between colors).


While humans' cones are attached to neurons that react to light at 435nm, 545nm and 570nm, a dog's cones react at 429nm and 555nm.


This means that a dog sees somewhat as does a human with red-green color blindness.


This means, for instance, that what a human perceives as red, a dog probably perceives as green, and what a human perceives as yellow, a dog sees as a neutral color -- gray.

    • Dulwich Park Runners (DPR) is your local club. Established 41 years ago, the club goes from strength to strength. Whether you are a serious competitive runner or an absolute beginner, DPR provides the support and motivation for you to maintain and improve your fitness and running performance. Regular weekly runs, coached sessions, competitions,  guided 'tourism' runs, weekends away, trips abroad, a sense of fun. DPR has it all. And a great social scene, including informal coffees/drinks, a quiz night, an amazing annual dinner, trips to the theatre or football, dancing and free pizza nights. Don't miss out! If you are new to running we organise an 8-week course for beginners twice a year. Possibly the best beginners' course in the country, its a fabulous introduction to the joy of running and you immediately become part of a broad running community. The nest course starts late Feb/early March. Visit our website for more information and come along to try us out!! Amazing value. www.dulwichparkrunners.co.uk Instagram:  dulwichparkrunners  
    • Well whatever parcels it includes would reduce the queue, even if not completely. But I can't see that it's an option at the Lordship Lane office anyway. The bus stop surely wouldn't be moved, it's in a very convenient location.
    • Think there is a shoe recycling bin by the Plough pub too (in the carpark).
    • I haven't been there recently, but when I visited Love Dulwich, I thought it was really good value and the food was good.  Agree about Rye Lane - Peckham seems to have a lot of good places (and new places opening regularly).
