a pinky on the nose is a curse for those who show their Corgis in Conformation events. Handlers hide the pink pigmentation with a blackening powder. Other pink colourations on the muzzle region are also dealt with using other powders.
But if you take your Corgi out in the sun and he/she has a pink area on the nose, then you should apply a sun block to the pink area. If you are an Australian, take note of how the Aussie cricketers protect their noses when out playing in the sun. Same for Corgis. Your vet or pet shop should stock suitable and effective sun block creams for dogs.
