Doberman with white hairs

Hey


Well, I just bathed my 15 month old doberman and I was brushing him when I noticed that some of the hairs that came off of him are white... It seems to be only half (or less) of each hair, the root part, and I was wondering if this was normal or if I have to take him to the vet. Is it something on his diet?

Thank you in advance

I don't know but lots of Dobermanns have a few white hairs, people who show just pluck them out.

Thank you I don't show him, and he would be precious to me if he was all gray haired I just want to be sure that it's not something health related

I don't show either but both my brown Dobies had a few stray white hairs, I just left them alone, they were still perfect to me

Nigredo is very black but some of the hairs are white at the base like that, too. Mostly on his tail but a bit on his back between his shoulder blades, as well. Normal for black dogs, not a big deal at all
