There might still be an issue with those that were black before.

Have you tried if the adding some paint helps, then re-upload to see if it continues to become black ?

Yes, that is the solution. I removed from the gallery and added paint then re-uploaded and it fixed the textures. It seems any pets that were uploaded BEFORE the patch will continue to be affected.

Pets from Gallery turning Black or missing textures in CAP

Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just download a pet from the gallery and open it in CAS.
What happens when the bug occurs? When I download a pet from the Gallery and try to load it in CAS, it will either show up black or with all the custom markings gone.......
What do you expect to see? Normal looking pets that do not have missing textures.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

Having the pets from gallery turning black issue. Pets downloaded from the Gallery and loaded into Create a Pet either turn black (missing textures) or they load without the custom markings (for example, just the base coat color is visible, such as white....)......

 

Other threads it was said that a certain patch fixed the issue, but I never had the issue until now, so one of the patches had to have introduced it again. @crinrict

This is a legacy bug that was fixed. Unfortunately already affected pets still have the issue.

Does it happen to all pets you download ?

You can try changing the 'paint' on the animal. that should put it back to normal.

Sounds different then the issue that was fixed. This happened after uploading to the gallery.

 

Best if you just create a new thread with all the info you have.

 

There's also this occurrence someone reported after the fix but it doesn't seem very widespread: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-CD-Dog-Became-Blacked-Out-IN-CAS-After-Loading-Fro...
