Does a pet dog see the world in color or black and white?

I have a beautiful family dog with nice light brown eyes, that wags its tail alot. He is a very happy playful family dog. I sometimes wonder, do certain pet animals such as dogs and cats see in color OR black and white?

Dogs are red-green color blind. They see a brighter and less detailed world when compared to humans. Peripheral vision is better than humans (dogs see more of the world), but distance is not judged quite as well. Dogs excel at night vision and the detection of moving objects. Dogs have much better night vision for 2 reasons:

They have more rods (which enable night vision).
They have a structure called the Tapetum Lucidum
This is a reflective surface behind the retina (area including the light sensitive cells) that reflects light back through it (gives the eerie shine at night).
