Sajid, jmo, but your dog looks to have very good pigment as well as color. Also a nice looking dog.

Can you be a little more specific on what you feel needs improvement.

best,
Rik

I've got an old book on natural diets & herbal remedies for dogs and this mentions that (powdered) seaweed is good for improving pigmentation (mouth, toes etc)

I don't recall the dosage though but would hazard a guess it shoudn't be too much (1/4 teaspoon a day?) as it contains plenty of iron.

Same a Rik though, I'm not sure what pigmentation is lacking is your dog.

Cheers,

AandA

LOL LF, I had to go back and make sure I was looking at the right dog.

I can offer you the solution that I have seen used many times in the show ring. And only your hair dresser will know.

Seaweed is very helpful in deepening pigment.  We use it all the time on our show horses.  I used it on my dobies as well.
