Rocky has pink pads on his paws. On one of the pads there is a black circle which I noticed a few weeks ago. I was not sure if it was a freckle (his belly skin is covered with dark brown spots looks like someone spilled paint). Or a blood blister or bruise. Its not raised. Looks like someone drew a circle with a sharpe marker. However I noticed it has gotten larger. Anyone have a clue what it could be?

Yeah its the front foot. Is Dexter white too with skin pigment? Maybe its just a pigment thing. But Im sure it got bigger. Also on his nose after a scratch from running past some branches, I noticed the only scar left behind is a tiny black dot. like a pencil dot.
Both of my dogs have spotted paws like that. Unless it seems painful to him, or like the others said if it changes size, color, texture, or shape...I wouldn't worry about it. It's just pigment in my kids.
Thank you! purple the spot on Dexters foot does look exactly the same as Rocky's. No I am not 100% shure if it got larger or if it grew along with his feet and body. But I do believe it is larger. No it is not raised or feel different. No pain or discomfort. Not sure if it was always there but I dont believe it was. I will keep an eye on it. If there seems to be any changes I will call the Vet.
Guiness has gotten one on her uumm vulva that she didnt use to have. And yeah, i umm examined it too It doesnt feel funny and she didnt react so me and my parents will just keep an eye on it. Somehow i wouldnt worry much about it though.
