| lil nose Hello everyone, I am new to YT. I have a question about my lil Angel Baby. Does anyone know why her little nose is changing color? Its black but, in the center it looks to be changing to brown. My husband seems to think its bc she loves to dig in the dirt. I'm just a worried mom I'm sure but I thought I would check w/ everyone to see what u think. |

| Welcome to YT. Chachi is correct. Once they are able to get back out in the sunshine on a regular basis, it will return to its normal black coloring.

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | It had me worried, too, when Rhett's started doing it. Cha Cha started a good link discussing the phenomenon. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...mentation.html
