What is the "Ruby Eye"?

The Chihuahua's glowing ruby eye is a distinctive feature that has long been a subject of both interest and admiration. This eye feature - often described as luminous or ruby - is a result of a recessive gene that gives many individuals a unique appearance. The ruby eye phenomenon is not only a visual treat but is also considered a symbol of the Chihuahua's heritage and charm.
