In most healthy dogs, the mucous membranes are pink and moist. The easiest mucous membranes to evaluate are inside your pupâs mouth -- her gums and inner cheeks. You may notice other colors, such as blue or white gums, which indicate an emergency. Mucous membrane color helps evaluate the blood in your dogâs extremities. Unless your pooch doesnât like her face messed with, you can easily check her membrane color by lifting her lip. Gently touch her gums and make sure they feel moist. Press gently on her gums with the pad of your finger, causing the gums to blanch.
