What's your take on this....Woman dying poodle pink! Ok here is the link CLICK HERE I guess I see the reason :rolleyes: and it was for a good cause (breast cancer awareness) but I dunno I'm mixed about this. Oh yea and she said it didn't harm the poodle because she used organic beet juice. What does everyone else think??? |
I didn't read the link but i know of a lot of people that do this. in fact, I saw a pink poodle at our local pet smart right after I got maggie :) they don't use hair dye like we do,...they usually use organic stuff that does not hurt the dogs at all. it is just creative grooming. It was actually on the today show right before I saw this particular poodle. I see no harm in it as long as they are not using anythign that will hurt the dog. on the Today show, they had sooooo many different kinds of styles....one was done like an american flag, one looked tie dyed...it was really pretty neat :) |
I went to a flea market, where these people had dyed there poodle pink. It was horrid looking, She looked like an older dog, who seemed to be in heat..The dog looked pathetic.. And they were trying to sell her at the flea market. |
I think there are bigger fish to fry than a woman who has dyed her poodle for a good cause. It's not like she hurt the dog or used people dye. She used beet juice for goodness sakes. As long as she isn't dying her all the time I don't see a problem with it. |
the lady used beet juice, now they are prosecuting... what the heck... they only give vick 23months in jail, and they're going after this lady for... virtually no reason... if you guys didnt read the article heres a little summary she dyed her dog pink with organic beet juice to raise awareness for breast cancer... no chemicals, it's not a harsh fuscia, it's a light pink...now they are pressing charges bc there is a law that prohibits dying pets any color that was made to prevent people from dying chicks and bunnies for easter... oh she is also a cosmetologist, if that makes any difference |
even though i think the dog looks funny, she has the right to dye her any way she wants. I do hair too. Is the government gonna tell me i cant dye hair anymore now? seriously. please. pffffft. |
You know, if it was a special rinse touted as: "the skin-nourishing properties of organic beet juices, rich in phyto-chemicals" and it was a skin/hair treatment, no one would have gotten their panties in a bunch over it. The fact that it just happens to dye her hair makes it something to get legal over? puh-leeze! For heaven's sake...I'm not into dyed poodles, but it was freakin' beet juice, and I'm sure it was applied the same way you'd put shampoo or conditioner on the dog for grooming. |
communisim in USA Its not the states biz. these dyes are not harmful to animals there temp. dyes and made from food that poor women what a joke |
I think its ridiculous to prosecute her over that |
I think they to worry about the dogswho are tied up out n the cold/ heat! Laying in snow/mud! With no shelter, or food or water!!! What is more important?? Her dog was not hurt in any way!!!! She used something safe!!! I doubt if I would do it to my dog, though! I don't know if any one has heard of "Bluing" It is used on white animals to help them be whiter- I know on horses! A girl from my town used to much- made her white horse blue- her parnets made her show it in a small town horse show- he was LT Blue!!!! She said she learned sometimes a little is much better!!! It was so funny!! But she didn't get fined!! |
As long as the dog isn't being hurt in any way, I see nothing wrong with it. I think the government should focus it's attention on the REAL criminals and leave this poor woman alone. |
A little beet juice won't hurt the dog. I personally wouldn't dye my dog, but I see no harm in what that woman did. They need to find something more important to worry about! |
Once when I was young my father (who was a hairstylist) added a bit of food coloring in a rinse on our poodle. He used our schools team colors to celebrate our qualification into the state finals and although our poodle did look a bit silly, it was all in good fun and she was fine. Many of us dress our dogs, put bows in their hair, buy elaborate bags to carry them around, etc. Is it really so far fetched to use a natural product on ones dog in order to draw attention to breast cancer awareness? I really think that they need to figure this one out before it gets out of hand. |
Maybe they should spend more efforts in nailing those who abuse dogs.. by giving them huge time to serve and set some examples on those kinds of people.. Dog was not harmed... my sister died of breast cancer at 52 years old.. they need all the support they can get... I would not personally do this.. but so stupid to spend time on this.. charging her...:( |
Well, if there is a law against it I say she shouldn\'t do it. It is very cruel the way they dye rabbits and chicks for Easter and so I understand them passing the law. If it happens to cause a Poodle Owner not to be able to dye her Poodle pink then it seems to be a small price to pay to keep people from dying Chicks and Bunnys. The article said she had been warned several times so she knew about the law. |
