I just noticed today that my dogs gums appear to be paler than they normally are. Today they are like a pale pink. He is acting completely normal. Eating and drinking great. He is on tylosin powder.

Pale pink gums are still normal for a dog. Since you say that Bentley is acting normal, eating and drinking, I would not worry. Check his gums once a day every day for the next few days. Should the gums turn pale or white, you will need to call your vet for an appointment.
