    Ive noticed ove the last month or two that my dogs nose has gone from being pure black in colour to a light shade of brown. Is this normal?

    It's also known as dudley nose. Don't worry, it's just a change in pigmentation, nothing to worry about, so long as you don't intend to show your dog. It's very common. :)

    adding a pinch of seaweed powder to her feed will help bring the pigment back too!!
