color of fur changing

Question
My 12 year old shih tzu, Katia is changing colors!  Her fur around her mouth and the bottoms of her paws are turning a reddish brown color.  She is almost all white with gray ears.  Why is this happening??!!

Answer
Hi - The paws and mouth color changes can be related to allergies to food or the Environment.  As for the white and gray ears, related to old age....
So, don't worry - some supplements can help the paws and mouth staining and discoloration.

1.  YOU can try some vitamin C - give (1) 500 mg of C ( ESTER C) per day.   YOU can do this for about 1 month.  Then, go to 1 every-other-day, long term.
2.  Next - I would give some "Activia" Yogurt 1/2 cup per day just for 2 weeks. ( you must get the Activia brand with the ACTIVE cultures)
3.  NuVET Plus - This is needed to Blast the Allergies and help her to fight off the Allergens...Skin and coat healer, too.
Please put the baby on the NuVET Plus System : Give 1 wafer per day for LONG term..
NUVET costs about 39.00 for a 60 count bottle
or
55.00 for a 90 count bottle....
MOST dogs only need 1 wafer treat per day.
