Vitiligo Is A Skin Condition Mostly Diagnosed In Humans,


but in rare cases it can also affect dogs,




 like Blaze, all photographs Blaze the Dog/Instagram,


 Blaze was born with a pure black fur and stayed that way for most of his life, but last year, 

 his human master, Santeri, noticed a small white patch on his ear,

 which just kept getting bigger and bigger,

 soon the patch had spread to the 10-year-old pooch’s face and torso, gradually turning his black coat, white,


a photo showing Blaze’s transformation over the last year was recently posted on the Facebook group Dogspotting Society, where it received over 32,000 likes and nearly 3,000 comments from people all over the world, Santeri has been documenting the progress of Blaze’s depigmentation on Instagram, where he set up a page for his beloved pet in January of this year. He currently has around 3,000 followers there, sadly as in humans there is no cure, but on a happier note Blaze is a healthy, outgoing dog that loves nothing more than to spend his days outside playing, and looks like he could be soon camouflaged in his home in Finland when playing out of doors in winter!
