Black nose losing it's color

[Ali & Sonny D.]

So I am not sure if I should be concerned or not. Sonny used to have a black nose. However, it seems to be turning more pink/brown. It almost looks like the color has just worn off . It is still black around his nostrils and under that but the tip and top half is pinkish. I have noticed this happening the past few months now.He is almost 2 (where did my puppy go??)  and is acting normal. He doesn't seem sick or unhealthy at all. Is it normal for a dogs nose to change color after time? (haha, my 5 year old just came in to announce that she asked Sonny if his nose was turning pink, lol  I don't think she likes it!)

Thanks for any thoughts or information!

I am not suggesting self treatment, you will need to consult your vet

Why do you say Vit. A must be given with Vit. D? I've never heard this and just glancing at Google this doesn't show up either.

Not sure but this is what my vet says AND vit D injections are a combo injection of A&D, that is the way they are prepackaged.

ALI!!!! Glad to see you HERE and not always at work - LOL  I hear that lack of son will fade noses.. But in sunny's case - I don't think he lacks sun exposure, but just maybe the weaker rays of the winter sun will do that also!  Let's see what happens in 33 days... that's when SPRING arrives!  woohoo

Found this article about Dogs and their noses turning pink and I thought it explained it pretty well.   Thought I would share it!

Hi everyone...

Sasha isn't quite two yet and her nose is still jet black.

About a year ago...I did notice that her nose was starting to get just the beginnings of a little change in color...a little rose color.

That was when I changed her from Wellness to Fromm.

Maybe it does have something to do with vitamins?

I don't know if that has Anything to do with it at all...but...from that time...Sasha's nose has returned to jet black.

With her white coat and black eyes and paw pads...her black nose is very striking...so...I do hope it stays that way.

Whatever color the nose...our Doods are Beautiful...and don't we Love Those Big Doodle Noses??!! Lol...
