Bingo appears be be going grey really early in life, presumably at the end of high school or maybe university? Either way, as someone going grey since their teen years, it feels affirming to see this represented in the show.

Am I missing something? Where's grey on Bingo?

Zoom in on her head. She has greys like Bandit and Chilli!

Edit: the little white dashes in the hair.

Those lines are the same color as the rest of her light-colored fur, it’s just an optical illusion that makes them look lighter.

That said, I agree that this is an intentional choice to show age in the show’s characters. I just don’t think it’s meant to be read as “going grey”.

Fair assessment! (=
