My puppies skin is for some reason turning black. She seems to be acting normal, but it still concerns me. Can you please help me find what’s wrong with my baby?

Hello. This is a very mild melanosis, normal darkening of the skin as your puppy ages & is exposed to more sunlight. This is how the skin protects itself. This is nothing tobe concerned about. Thanks for using PetCoach.
