How come northern dogs have a tendency to blue eyes? Huskies?

Heredity?

Not that I know the details but my guess is that Nordic dogs have tendency toward blue eyes for same reason as the Nordic humans. For all I know blue eyes are more protective against snow glare...less tendency to get cataracts from it
