Black & White Sunday


Snow nose.

Neeko is the only one of my dogs who actually has a true snow nose, which is disguised in this photo by actual snow. The center of her nose gets pink in the winter months, and darkens in the summer.

It happens to many different breeds of dogs, though the exact cause is unknown. Many theories exist as to why. It does seem to occur more often in breeds with white or light coats, and northern breeds.
