My chocolate labs nose is turning pink. Doesn't look normal!

[jakelogsdon]

Her nose has gone from brown to almost all the way pink in a couple of months. I'm assuming its not "snow nose" considering it's July. I dont think it could be dietary. Also it doesnt look normal because its not fading away in color, its spotty and blotchy. She is happy and healthy, I just want to make sure this is not a warning sign or something that gets ignored. The picture of her laying down is from two weeks ago, the up close picture is from today, you can see the change just in two weeks.

There are various things that can cause this -- When it happens in Summer, it could very well be Discoid Lupus.
There is also possibility of it being nasal parakeratosis or pemphigus.
Take the dog to your Vet -- it may need to be biopsied.
