I was just given a white Korean jindo puppy this past tuesday and I am told it is a pure breed but in need of some assurance. I am just checking off all the posibillities of it not being a pure breed. She is an all white dog with dirty pink nose and I have read pure breed have black nose. Maybe because she is still a 8 week old puppy? So far it displays all the personalities of a jindo, smart, patient, dominent, and curious.

Nose color is black except that a pink nose is acceptable on a white dog. Nostrils are large and open.
Disqualifications: Butterfly nose; complete lack of pigmentation on nose.

I don't know about this particular breed but many dogs' nose coloration does change as they mature. Some even change at different times of the year. My Maltese's nose lightens slightly in the winter but is jet black during the summer.
Try a net search for Korean Jindo dog.

Unless you are in Korea, it is unlikely that she is a purebred as Korea does not allow their dogs to be exported, although it is possible. I have seen dogs with both black and pink-ish noses, and I doubt that her nose will change from pink to black. Jindo's are very loyal and intelligent, but they need lots of exercise and mental stimulation. They also need very high fences because they are very good jumpers!

Jindos are solid hunters however the gray Wolf is larger and greater. Wolves get their nutrients from organic meat and that they exercising alll day. Jindos are superb however the gray Wolf is extremely solid.

black.
If her nose is now pink the color is not going to change.
She may be pure bred but have a disqualifing fault as a pink nose.
Check AKC for the breed standards.
