[This usually means that the dog is a mutt and has some Chow breed in it. Chows have black (purple) tongues, so when they have mix breed pups, the puppies have purple dots on their tongues.]

CORRECTION: A number of breeds have black or blue tongues. If every dog that has blotches on its tongue were part Chow, all I can say is that those Chows have surely gotten around!

Plus, my dog is a registered purebred! She is a blue merle Australian Shepherd. I've wondered if the blue merle gene sometimes causes black splotches on the tongue. Even her skin is merled, not just her hair!

What does it mean if a cat has a really red tongue?

It simply mean that your cat forgot to put its tongue back in its mouth. It is extremely common. When cats groom themselves, they leave there tongue out. Sometimes they will lick their fur then stop for a moment. They also sometimes stick their tongues out or leave their mouth open when they sleep. You might have to worry if your cat's mouth is open all the time, because this might mean that your cat might have a mouth injury, requiring veterinarian assistance. But for the most part, it is completely harmless. So relax and grab a camera if you have time!
