No. The coloring of a dogs mouth has nothing to do with wether or not it's a purebred. I have a mixed breed dog, it has dark patches on it's roof, tongue, and gums. My friends purebred, registered golden retriever has a black spot on it's tongue and it's mouth. That can happen in any dog no matter what breed. Doesn't even have to be part chow or shar pei to get black spots on it's tongue.

No. It doesn't mean they are purebred or that they are mixed, it just means they have dark patches on the roof of their mouth and or on their gums. Some have a patch or some spots of blue on their tongues.

I think all breeds had been created for a rationale and with that cause in mind, actually i desire we might leave them alone to do their jobs and best folks who can cater to the breed's wishes have any such breed. There are thousands of breeds and all created for one rationale or a different. There are best companions, working puppies, looking neighbors etc. For instance Dobermans should best be owned by folks who can educate them in agility/ service and so forth or as a minimum supply them appropriate endeavor, these dogs weren't meant to lay round all day and if one of these canine is favored another breed will have to be regarded. When people attempt to exchange the breed, it's mainly now not for the best. I see 2 many skinny, unhealthy dobermans that come from poor breeding. I imply really would you attempt to make a miniature poodle into a shield canine? Most often now not, so why attempt to alternate the opposite breeds. I feel we will have to dangle on to breed traits, and handiest prime inventory will have to be breed. Edit- i believe of breed standards as a lot more than simply description of the best way the dog is meant to look

No, it means that he has dark patches on the roof and gums of his mouth.

My pomeranian, ( who happens to be from a champion breeder, does in fact have dark patches on the roof of his mouth), it means nothing .

I dont think so.My mom's friend has a dog with dark spots on it's mouth and it's not a purebread.It's probably part of the coloring.

No, black pigment can be found in any pure or mixed breed dog.
