If no skin lesions are present, that could be completely normal being part of the aging process. Hope this answer was helpful, but 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.

There is also a chance that your dog is suffering from a condition called vitiligo. The skin and fur turns white due to destruction of the pigment cells in the skin. Vitiligo is not an illness as such, just a cosmetic condition and there is no treatment. It may be spreading.
