Very normal, mine lost most of her black by that age too


ladydhawaii

Yep- will keep changing.


doughnutsforsatan

My old girl even went grey around age 14.


gringafalsa

My girl started showing her grey around 6 years old! But not full grey

my beagles entire head was black when we got her and now it’s brown, i love it sm. what i wasn’t expecting though was for her to also be getting a brown stripe along her back. i wanted the black to stay ;( but yes they change a lot in those first 6 months to a year!! it’s crazy to see it looking back on pictures of then.


HarpersGhost

Beagles, especially tricolors, lighten a LOT. It's a good way of aging them, based upon how much black they have. Once he gets around 6 or 7, that brown is going to start turning to white. Don't be surprised to see that little white around his nose to extend up past his eyes.

My 16 year old has a totally white face now; it's so weird when I see old photos of him. I forgot how he used to be mostly brown!

Mine is the same. Nearly his entire back was black as a pup, like yours, and now at nearly 3, his back is basically brown with a black ‘shadow’.

Just wait, pretty much everyday you’ll be looking at your beagles fur to see what’s different than yesterday

When we got our pup her whole head was black. Now her whole head is brown.


beverlyhillsbrenda

Same, my girl was dark brown with dark brown ears now they’re light brown and her nose is getting whiter


Steadyandquick

Love the name, the leash, the bed and of course Magnificent Macaroni! Too handsome!

I've always said hounds are so cute when they are little because that let's you excuse the bad things until they get trained!


Dazzling-Conclusion9

Absolutely normal.

Hi! Yes, my beagle’s butt and shoulders went from black as a puppy, to chocolate brown as an adult.☺️


undrcovrgroovn

and then they turn white with age 🥹🥺


MikeinAustin

Mine is almost all white now. Beautiful little 13 year old!


Garden-Goof-7193

He's a beaut!


LadyPaws_Linda

All of our tri color beagles have turned white in the face and ears. One of them went almost completely white.


Avg2023

Same here


tmar910

YES. Very normal.


Beaglemom2002

Yes, apparently, their fur can shift and change throughout their life.


krxxi

I learned that beagles colors change so much, that beagle breeders are allowed to change their color on the puppies registration up to three times before finalizing it! Interesting stuff!!


dreadelephant1

I had a beagle who changed every 3 years or so. Was mostly black when we got her and lost all of it in her face by the time she was 8, then went gray.


GRowdy14

Yes, normal. My Rowdy was mostly black then turned brown within the first year.


Alienattackforce

That happened to all 3 of my beagles


Daisy_1218

Beagles are born black and white, and then the brown develops as they grow.


Charm1212

Yep totally normal. I loved the black saddle mine had right across his back. Its almost gone now 😔 it's happened so quickly too. He's only 18 months old.


SqueezableDonkey

Yes. My guy had a lot of black as a pup, he gradually lost it as he grew up. Now as an old man he is quite grey.


EnvironmentalShoe5

Totally normal. But let me just comment on how beautiful your pup is.


death_or_glory_

First of all, how freaking cute is he? Second, his name is MACARONI? SO CUTE!


Pale-Refrigerator255

Macaroni, I don’t care what colors you are and/or will be, I’m a fan of you!


ConsciousReward2967

😍😍😍


Alt_Pythia

All beagles start out black and white when they’re born. It takes about 6 months for the outer part of the black to finish turning brown.


StatInformaticistics

Yep. My old girl is all white faced now but used to be like your beagle.


Psychological-Echo19

My babies head was entirely black and now it’s entirely light brown lol


EveningCap1965

Not at all... You should give that beauty to me..


notsobitter

Yes! My pup’s face was mostly black when he was young, and now it’s faded to mostly light brown.


Puzzleheaded_Eye8771

100% normal. My beagle boy was basically black and white until his brown started coming in. Then he looked like he had eyeliner cause he was still very black around his eyes
