My 6 month old pup has a cut on his face, just below his nose.

by Davy@1234 Tue Jun 15 2021, 00:52

Hi everyone, I'm New to this forum. My 6 month old pup has been cut on his face just below his nose. it's nothing serious but it's taken the black away from his face and its healing OK. I'm just wondering if it will grow back black or will it leave a white scar. (another dog pawed him with his paw). thank you.

Hi from me & Katy, welcome to our forum Smile

I would say there is a fair chance that the healing cut will remain white thinking

What is your pup's name? We would love to see pics of him Love Struck

Thank you for the reply, that's what I was worried about I've an older boy who had something similar and his stayed white. but he's older, I was hoping because he's younger he might have time on his side.

Hi & welcome.

If he has dark pigment, any scarring should be quite dark. It's hard to say whether the fur will grow back dark or lighter. But in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't really matter. Wink

He's a handsome young man Love Struck

Hello and welcome.
I agree he is a lovely boy.

As to the colour of the coat that grows back, I think it also depends on how “serious” the cut is with regards to the epidermis.
You might also be surprised how it can change over time - Nifty’s black/white nose has changed an awful lot as she’s been growing. Wink
