Simoman 110 Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 White gums is not a good sign, the mucous membranes should be salmon pink. White gums could indicate anemia, shock or somertimes indicate underlying problems such as tumors, don't mean to scare you but i'd say a vet visit is in order. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest ROOSTER Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 if the dog was dehydrated it would have pale gums and when it hydrated its self they would be back to normal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
