Answer
Hi Krystal,

The puppy coat is always darker.  In time, the hair will grow back as it was, however the color can change as you pup ages.  I looked at the pictures many times and I am puzzled about the color on his head and face.  Is one picture older than the other?  It just looks like a different dog to me.  But I trust you that it's the same.
