MemberMy lab, Cassy, is about 12yrs now. Sheās on a 4-5 star food and gets one egg daily, some sardine/anchovy oil, and coconut oil as well. Sheās fairly soft, but her back is dull and brown. Iām assuming itās sun-faded, as sheās been mostly outdoors her whole life, and when offered a cool shady spot in the soft grass, she prefers to lay in the hot asphalt driveway. Sheās quite the sunbather.
Are there other possibilities for browning fur? This isnāt anything sudden, itās been fairly gradual. Iāve seen those shampoos for āblackeningā dogs, but would they really work? Is there anything I should start/stop feeding her, or is it probably just results of too much sun?
(Iām not concerned at all, as sheās acting perfectly normal)

MemberIt can be a few different things. There are certain vitamins and minerals that can affect the quality of the coat, including how much it gets sun damaged. Thyroid can affect whether or not a coat sunburns. Age changes can. Kidney disease can. And there are more.

MemberVery interesting. Thank you, Patty.

MemberI donāt think itās licking/tears that much, because itās only on her withers/back. She canāt reach her withers or most of her back, she only licks her legs. Her legs are still shiny black though. She is in the sun a whole lot though.
I have seen shampoos for dull/fading/browning dark coats, does anyone know if they really work?
theBCnut
MemberThey have sun screen in them, so they work if the fading is sun damage. They also have ingredients that help remoisturize a dry coat.
Shasta220
MemberAh, I see. I may have to try that with her, as Iām almost positive itās sun damage. My other dogs have black backs, and are in the sun just as much, but donāt have any browning. (Aside from Lokiās naturally tan undercoat, of course)
theBCnut
MemberIn horses, they give them paprika to improve coat quality and ability to resist sun fading.
