How old were your dogs when...

[wolfsoul]

Belgians typically develop a "frost muzzle" at about a year of age, so that's about when Visa got her's.

I think Cody was around 8, but Logan is showing signs of gray. It could be part of her mixed breed. She's only around 4. I figure in a few years we'll be a matched pair!

Penny started going grey at a young age she was about 2 years old, her little head is almost all grey now and she will be 8 on Christmas day. Theodore is 3 and he is just starting to get a few grey hairs around the muzzle.

Clover has been going grey since she was about 4, her lips have quite a few grey/ white hairs now, she is 7 years old. And my poor little bubby Elvis is starting to go grey already and he is only 2 years old .

I my opinion part of the reason some dogs grey earlier than others can be due to stress levels.
My dog Toby that lives at my parent’s house started turning grey when she was around 2. She has been hit by a car when she was 10 months old and suffered a severely broken leg requiring surgery. Then a year later tore her ACL and had another surgery.

Buddy who is under consent stress started turning grey when he was 2, only a year after I adopted him.
Sierra who is 4 has just started getting a little grey in her muzzle. Just on one side under her nose.. it looks kind of funny!

Does anyone else think it may have anything to do with stress and/or trama?

Nanook is white, either his grey hairs are white instead or he has none and he's 15.
Raustyk is almost 8 and if I remember right she was about 5ish when first started to get a little grey around the muzzle.

Autumn was 3 or 4 when you could really notice, Pepper was 8 or 9.

[My Peanuts]

Sylvia was only 2 years old when she started getting grey, but she is all black. She is only 2 1/2 now . Harley is 3 years old and Morty is only one, but we will never be able to tell on either of them because Har is white and Mort is blonde and white. Jimmy has a little grey beard and he's about 3 years old. He's only been with us a short time, but he had a rough life until I rescued him. God only knows when he got his grey. (come to think of it, it might even be part of his coloring )

[Vette]

5 or 6 years old i noticed that his nose fuzzies were standing out more

Keegan just turned 4 in September and I noticed it within the last year.

[ramanth]

Kia was 5 when I noticed her muzzle looked more white than in past photos.

[BitsyNaceyDog]

Buster's muzzle was already a bit grey when I got him at age 6 (he's 10 now). Charlie is 7 and just recently started to get a little grey on the makings above his eyes.

None of my girls are grey yet. Bitsy is 5, Nacey is 2, and Nova is 1.
