Trivia Answer: What Pale Gums Really Mean

This is the follow-up to yesterday’s trivia question:
"True or False: If a dog’s gums are pale or white, it usually means they’re just tired or cold."
The correct answer is: ❌ FALSE

Pale or white gums can be a sign of serious medical issues—like blood loss, internal bleeding, anemia, or shock. These are not minor symptoms and should always be treated as a potential emergency.

If you ever notice this, don’t wait—come see us immediately.
Beacon Veterinary Specialists is open 24/7, no appointment needed.
