 pink noses :)

Pretty much all of them are born with pink noses. & of the 6 litters of pure BT's I've helped deliver, they start out pink and spot in as they get older. My 2year old black & white female's nose filled in to black completely, but my 1 year old red male still has a great deal of pink.

I got my female BT at 12 weeks. She still had quite a few pink sploches on her nose. Now her nose is all black. So don't worry.

When I got my boston baby at 8 weeks his nose was 90% pink! Looked kinda funny lol but we still loved him! He is now 4 months
And his nose is almost completely black now! I wouldn't worry about it at all!

If you look at puppy pictures, there's a lot of pink on/around the nose & muzzle; it changes to black as they get older. I wouldn't worry; besides, there's probably not anything you can do about it anyway. Just love them. If you know your dog's breeder, you can ask if this is typical within this line.

Pink noses for a newborn are fine.
They do change color later. We have had 5 litters and the ones with pink noses all turned black later...about 3 to 4 weeks.
