West Highland Terriers may develop pink feet due to a condition called "hyperkeratosis," where the paw pads become thickened and can lose their pigmentation. This can be exacerbated by Allergies, irritants, or infections that cause inflammation. Additionally, the natural color of their pads can appear pinker if they are not exposed to sunlight or if the pads are worn down. Proper care and regular veterinary check-ups can help manage and prevent this condition.
