    They are all rednose...the pink is from a lack of pigment and will usually disappear as they get older(but not always). I believe this lack of pigment comes from a lot of white in the blood.

    Red nose and pink in the nose are two different things as Steinlin alluded to. The pink spots or dots are where there is a lack of pigmentation. And entire pink nose is the same only a total lack of pigmentation in the nose. As Steinlin also said, they may or may not grow out of it.

    Means nothing but that they may be a little more susceptible to sun burn.
