I am getting worried about my dog. Today i was petting her and she was yawning. and i saw that her gums are starting to go from pink to black? is this normal for a 4yr old dog?

What breed?.. Certain dog breeds would have black gums come in .. (normally before 4 yrs, but i've seen it happen in an older schnauzer mix).. It really depends.. Some examples would be a Chow, or Schnauzer.. (I'm sure there are more, those are the two I know of offhand..)
If it seems really unusual, the dog won't eat, has pain while eating, or smells bad go to a vet..

daddy use to say that pink met heart worms and black was good my rottie (the one in the picture) has black gums and he is very healthy

I have never seen that happen. I'd get it checked out.

i do not think so. i think you should have them look at by a vet just to make sure.
