Frequently Asked Questions About Maltese Dogs
The nose on my Maltese seems to be turning a light brown and sometimes almost pink. It used to be dark black like a chunk of coal. Is this something to be concerned about?
The pigment on a Maltese's nose could be turning pink due to lack of sunshine because of the winter weather. Depending on where you live, if the weather isn't too cold and is sunny, take him out on those days even if its for a car ride. It could also be the type of bowl that he's eating and drinking from. If it's plastic that could be the culprit as well. A female going through a heat can sometimes cause the black pigment in their nose to turn to pink also.
