So gray/white

I was just looking at my poor old girl this morning and she has gotten SOOOO gray/white in her face. I mean she's been graying for a couple of years, but I swear latley she grows a new bunch of gray/white hairs overnight it seems. And I was looking at pictures of when we first got her (which was almost 4 years ago, she's a rescue so was not a puppy) and wow what a difference.

Poor girl, just a reminder, that the years keep going :-(.

I know what you mean. Joey will only be 3 this coming March and he is already starting turn to turn grey around his mouth! I cant believe he will be 3 already ( i know still so young) and I do cherish every moment I have with my lil guy!

I wish my girl was only 3. She's between 8 and 10. I may be surprised, but I don't think she'll be with us too many more years. One, maybe 2, but I don't think it'll be much more than that given her medical problems. But I figure, regardless of the time she has, her time with us has been good and that's all that matters.

Though Jazzy is just 5, I noticed the her muzzle is getting more gray/white about 6 months ago. So now I started calling her "Jazzle the Gray". Kind of a bummer knowing what we already know, getting older is the pits.

Thor was 5 1/2 yrs old when we brought Arabella home and he didn't have a single gray hair. That was less then 3 yrs ago. His face is almost all gray, his ears are gray and he's got gray on his back. I like to blame the terror Arabella for the gray and not his age. lol
