Not like his bottom lips are, no.

Sometimes his bottom lips are nearly white and then later they’ll be pink again.

It’s random and none of his blood tests show any anything amiss.

One vet said “Maybe he’s just weird that way”, which I’m pretty sure is not a diagnosis from the Merck manual.

I’m awaiting extensive thyroid tests as well as the lousy T4 test they did is pretty useless.

His numbers were obviously “low normal” on even those tests and the vets flat out said “we don’t treat low normal”.

They did not do the exhaustive tests I requested, at all, so we had to get blood drawn all over again and sent the blood/serum to Dr Dodds in CA.

do you have any holistic vets near you? I highly recommend going to someone that actually wants to get to the bottom of what’s going on instead of guessing and then treating symptoms. Mainstream medicine, whether for humans or pets, are as worthless as mainstream media.

I might recommend a basic nutrient added to their food that Glenn Beck pitches called Ruff Greens(?) You can get a human grade one too, in powder form, that will help give your dog alot of nutrients that they do not get in dog food.

Do you feed a quality food, wet and dry? (ie high quality protein and no grains)

'One vet said “Maybe he’s just weird that way"

My doc has been saying that about me for years. Don't let it bother you. LOL!
