| If you look at the captions to the pictures none are recent and some date back to 2002. What they remind me of is the models that you see when you go to the salon for a new hair style and pick up the books/magazines and start flipping through all the pages. I always start to think where the heck would anyone go with THAT do......more like a DON'T!

Donating YT 500 Club Member | I am so non-artistic that I can appreciate the skill and artistry it took to accomplish those looks. I suppose (in spite of my age) I am in childlike awe of the finished product. There is such artistic beauty there! Would I do that to a dog I owned? No, but I also wouldn't personally get a tattoo either. However, it doesn't hinder me from appreciating and realizing that some of the tattoos I see on folks are as beautiful as an oil painting on canvas. Imagine what a skilled and talented artist a tattoo artist really has to be to create such masterpieces! I am discovering as I get older that I have a much greater ability to tolerate differences in others. It's amazing really because I have finally discovered that learning to celebrate the differences between myself and others does not mean I am diluting my own beliefs and values. Quite the contrary. I find that a greater tolerance is broadening my understanding of other people and not so surprisingly I am discovering a greater sense of acceptance within myself. (Having always been my own worst critic, I must admit this new self-acceptance is quite refreshing!) What is so interesting about this discovery is that I was quite tolerant of differences in children but never before really understood that I needed to entend the same courtesy to other adults. |

| Toy, the older I get I feel more and more I feel like you and tolerate the differences. The OP has a point but I just love how creative the people were in doing this. This washes out and doesn't cost much like some yorkie clothes and more comfortable, so i see no harm. I really like the football player, the horse is so amazing and of course the panda who must have been a well fed poodle Thanks for the thread.

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | I think its pretty cool actually. Youve got talent to get a dog to sit still long enough to do that!! Thom used to wear a mohawk of a different color weekly He loved the attention, and it was ALWAYS koolaid!

| While most of the dogs don't look exactly happy to be dressed up like this, at least their owners are taking an active interest in their pets. I can think of a lot worse things for people to be doing to their dogs. Now, I don't think the dye jobs are very safe, health wise, for them - but as long as safe dyes are used it should be OK. Also, several of them gave me a good laugh. |

| Different! It reminds me that my daughter thought I was crazy with hairbows and bandanas. She stayed with me for several weeks one summer and her Oscar always got a bandana after a bath when he was "all clean and beautimus" (our word). She bathed him after they went home and Oscar went and got his bandana and brought it to his Mom. She said she was not going to tell me but it was just too funny! Some Yorkies like that froo-froo stuff and some don't I guess.

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | These dogs are professionally groomed this way for creative grooming competitions. I've seem them and they are awesome. It takes a lot of talent to be able to style the hair that way and get the colors down.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | LOL...you did catch me! I was so sleepy and keep my laptop by the bed so before I took my nap, I thought I'd read just one thread... As they say, "the rest is history" Maybe this site should be called a Lays potato chip! Anyway, I did think how cute that football player would have been if it had been a TN Vols or TN Titian...LOL I did get a short nap...woke up and the thread was still on the screen so see what I"m doing now...LOL All I can say is YT may be addicting but at least it's not fattening...LOL (For some reason those dogs made me think of those balloon creations I saw on the news the other day/night...(CNN maybe??) Awesome!) Last edited by TOY; 09-03-2009 at 01:00 PM. |
