Does your dog have any black spots on their tongue?

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

Kind of a pointless poll, but I was just curious. Every single dog except one in the obedience class Tango and I are in have black/purple on their tongue (1 GSD, 1 AmStaff, 1 Rottweiler, 1 Borzoi and a few Shih tzu mixes). None of my current dogs do, but Echo did have a couple and I think Jesse had one at the very back as well.

Hold on I have to go look......


OK, I'm back. Nope, no black spot on the ACD girl.

Interesting though, since people usually assume if a dog has black on it's tongue it must be a Chow mix. I've seen plenty of pure bred dogs of other breeds that had some color on their tongue though.

Moo is the only one who does. :)

[Chilli]

Nope.. no one in the house does.

I had to check before I responded. :p Nope, none of mine have spots.

Molly has three spots on her tongue. I think they are so adorable!

Prince or Astra don't have any though.

Jenny does it's way back in her tongue, though. :) it's more purple than black. I have met a lot of dogs at the shelter with spots on their tongues. I think it's neat actually and very cute. :)

I voted no, but Zoee does have a black spot (we call it a freckle) under her tongue. You can see it in this pic I attached.

[Danegirl2208]

nope my 2 do not :)

Pepper had one. She was a purebred black cocker spaniel. Our springer, Dixie, had a bunch of black spots. Many purebred dogs have black on their tongues.

[GreyhoundGirl]

Nope, not a single one

[BitsyNaceyDog]

No tongue spots here.

[Suki Wingy]

nope!

[Alysser]

Nope, no tounge spots here either. :p

[sumbirdy]

Scout does!

[wvmutts]

Yes..Reggie does. :)

[sammy101]

Lucy has a couple big spots and Kodie has no black at all.

[Twisterdog]

Only Keito does.

[molucass]

Nope!


When I volunteered at the humane society, if a dog had black on its tongue, they automatically said it must be mixed with chow.. I found that rather annoying.
