It looks like that is what she is doing, possibly. She shouldn't have allergies this time of year. Hmmm..NO idea!

1. Th...Reasons why your dog’s nose may de-pigment:<br /><br />1. The weather: The most common reason a dog's nose loses its pigment is called winter nose or snow nose. Some dog's noses change colors from a dark color to pink in cold weather; turning dark once again when the weather gets warmer. Usually when the nose changes color due to the weather it only partially changes pink as seen in the picture above. Snow nose seems to be directly related to the temperature and is harmless to the dog. The culprit is thought to be a breakdown in an enzyme called tyrosinase, which is what makes melanin. (Melanin is what gives color, or pigment, to the hair, skin and parts of the eyes.) The enzyme is temperature sensitive and gets weaker with age.<br /><br />Some breeds which are most prone to the nose changing with the weather are the Bernese Mountain Dog, Golden Retriever, Labrador Retriever, Husky and Shepherd.<br /><br /> <br /><br />2. Old age: A dog's nose may lose its pigment as it ages.<br /><br /> <br /><br />3. Injury: If a dog experiences some kind of trauma such as a scrape or abrasion, the nose can turn pink as it heals. The pigment will usually return after a while.<br /><br /> <br /><br />4. Bacterial infection: The nose may not only lighten in color but may look inflamed, sore, crusty or otherwise unhealthy. You may want to contact a veterinarian if this is the case.<br /><br /> <br /><br />5. Nasal de-pigmentation, also called “Dudley Nose” is when a dog's nose turns completely pink or even white for unknown reasons. Sometimes the dog's nose never does change back. In some dogs it will randomly regain it's pigment or change seasonally.<br /><br />Breeds most prone to Dudley Nose are the Afghan Hound, Doberman Pinscher, Golden Retriever, Irish Setter, Pointer, Poodle, Samoyed and the White German Shepherd.<br /><br /> <br /><br />6. Contact allergies (contact dermatitis): When a dog is allergic to things its nose comes into direct contact with. The lips are usually also affected.You may have to do some investigative work to figure out what the dog is allergic to. The nose and sometimes the surrounding area may look inflamed, sore, crusty or otherwise unhealthy. Sometimes a dog can be allergic to certain types of plastic. You can rule out an allergy to a plastic food bowl by switching to a stainless steal bowl.<br /><br /> <br />Just Duckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07270175922946670569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6991743430794325756.post-87291312131134613002015-01-27T08:51:07.141-08:002015-01-27T08:51:07.141-08:00Still snowing here in RI, so far 16", cats ar...Still snowing here in RI, so far 16", cats aren't allowed out my husband thinks they might get lost in a snow bank!
