Apollo has big brown eyes. They are the same color and match the brown/tan that is on his cheeks, paws, and feet.
When I look into his eyes, I see him looking back at me. Inquisitive, curious eyes that are trying to figure out the world. Up close, face to face, I can see comfort in those eyes (because I am physically close to provide a sense of safety and familiarity). When he looks at me from a distance, he is studying our surroundings and taking in evidence to figure out what my motive might be so that he can react accordingly. Dinner, bathroom, toy, play... these are all possible options that he gathers through observation with those eyes.
His eyes tell me that he appreciates and loves me unconditionally. And I always look right back at him, hoping that he sees the same thing from me.
