Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It isn’t uncommon for dogs coat colors to change as they get older. There are also some disease processes that can change coat color. To be sure, I would recommend having a vet take a closer look to make sure there are no microscopic mites or metabolic changes. Good luck and kisses to Dassy!
