It's no problem unless it appears on other normally black areas, ie, the lips or around the eyes. She said that in those cases, it's a possible indication of underlying health problems. She said that some of her dogs get it and many times it goes away in the summer months when there is more exposure to the sun. I always "touch up" her pictures!  |
My girl gets snow nose.
She was a dark button nose till the sun is setting early and now she paling up for the winter. She had it last winter and come spring it was dark again.
