Sharon Empson Webboard User Reg: 08-27-2007 Posts: 1197 Loc: Offline	My other dog Terra's nose is starting to change color, I want to look up what this is called and see what I can do to remedy it, but unfortunately I can't remember what a change in nose color is called. Can someone give me the name of what this is called? Thanks Sharon Empson

Also you're in the Northern hemisphere correct? Reason I ask is there are some conditions that occur sunlight unrelated like collie nose or dermatomyositis and others from lack of light like snownose.

Sharon Empson Webboard User Reg: 08-27-2007 Posts: 1197 Loc: Offline	Melissa: The nose color of my dog Bindi changes color, from dark brown to pink. Now my newest dog Terra- who I have had for about 2 years, her nose is dark black and is changing to a brown color right now. Its the whole nose, not just the edges. Yes we are in the Northern Hemisphere. I was concerned that I was doing something wrong with their diet or something, they eat raw. My other dog cody has a jet black nose and it has remained black for the 2-3 years we have had him. Thanks for your help Sharon Empson
