You forgot the cuteness warning!!! Molli is just a little doll. I could look at pictures of her all day. One of my RB poodles had a discolored patch on one of her front legs. It happened because she had been chewing on that leg for apparently no reason. (The vet felt she did it out of boredom). In time it affected the hair follicles and turned the area darker. When Bella had a cyst removed from her back the hair around the cyst briefly turned darker too. I would guess that Molli had some sort of an irritation to cause her fur to turn a darker apricot in that area. It should go away but if it doesn't I wouldn't worry. She is just as cute as she can be, spot or no spot.
