Muzzle Going Grey----At What Age is this Normal?

We got our RocRoc off death-row at the pound 3 years ago. At that time, she just had a patch of grey under her chin. Each shedding season, she gets a little greyer, first under the jaw, then on top of the muzzle.
Now a sprinkle of grey in eyebrows & top of head. From teeth wear, we figured she could be from 4-7, but no one knew.

Anybody know from personal experience when their own chums started going grey?

There's no rule-of-thumb on greying. Some grey early, some later, others don't at all; just like humans. I've also never seen any relation to greying and how long Rotts live.

My darling girl Riga will be 8 in Feb. She's starting to get a grey muzzle.
