Why does my dog have pinkish-brown spots or discoloration on his lips?

Question

Hi, I've noticed my nearly 3yo husky has some pink/reddish/brown rash/spots/discolouring around his lips. Haven't changed his diet or anything​, appeared randomly. He's on dry kibble mainly (Arden Grange premium) plus he eats lots of vegs, fruit, fish. Any suggestions please? Haven't changed his behaviour either, doesn't seem to be bothering about it. Much appreciated x. Pet's info: Dog | Siberian Husky | Male | neutered | 2 years and 10 months old | 52.9 lbs

Those discolorations are completely normal and, looking at the pictures and reading your description of the signs, there is nothing to be worried about. That brownish areas are likely to be due by Nikolai saliva, especially the fat content of it. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
