Other animals perceive the image on TV as being three-dimensional, that doesn't mean that it actually is. And, actually, many animal species can be proven by an experiment to be color-blind. You just think they perceive colors the same way you do because of, well, qualia.
Do you want to hear the material explanation for color vision (in it's various incarnations), or the lack thereof...or do you already suspect that there is one?
Who, btw, is under the impression that a dog sees color like we do? We know they don't..and we know why. The answer isn;t "qualia", lol.
