If its nose is pink, that's okay. Sticking him in the hot sun will not change the pigment of his nose. In fact, a dog with a red/pink/light-colored nose can get sunburned. And yes, they can get skin cancer. In fact, they make sunscreen for dogs. It might sound silly but it's a great idea for a dog who spends a lot of time in the sun.

no this usually happens during the winter to a lot of dogs. It's just the pigment in his nose has faded or gone away. Most times it comes back during the summer or if he is old usually stays a faded pink color.

No. The color of the nose come do to heredity.

NO. Please do not do this! Many vets will ask you if your dog's nose is pink, not to let them in the sun.

I doubt it but be careful if it's hot where you live. Don't leave him outside in the heat.
