My Sheltie puppy Penny is now 15 weeks' old and I have noticed that some of her pads are still pink - her nose is nice and black though. It is over 13 years since I had a puppy, so have forgotten if this is normal - anybody know please?

cute!

I would say this is quite natural, but I am no expert. I know in my breed pink pads and black nose in puppies is normal and I would think it is the same in all breeds.

Thanks Bairn and Borzoi. Anyone else got any idea please?

I would also think it is quite natural but I know very little about the breed. She sure is a cute lil girl.

Hi there!

Basil was about eh..about 15 weeks old when all her paws turned black...and she's fine...no health problems or nothing so I think it's ok

Thanks Lassie, Doglover and Katz and everyone - I won't worry then. You tend to forget all these things after 13 years !!
