| Someone on here (can't remember who) dyed their yorkie pink. To be honest I thought it looked ridiculous JMO. I can't find the thread though. Naturally there were very irate members, just so you know!

| I would just be a little cautious due to skin irritations or whatever. I personally wouldn't dye my dog's hair just because I think it's a little too silly (no offense, JMO) and I'm just worried about reactions, especially with Chip cause he's sooooo sensitive to everything. JMO. If you want to do it, then obviously, go ahead. You know what would be cute? Blue and green!

Thor's Human Donating Member | Well, Thor appears to have made the decision for me. Poor little guy got a very upset tummy this morning and I took him to the vet. They told me he might have a virus and to keep him away from other dogs. So no parade for us. He seems perfectly fine now, but I still need to give the vet a stool sample and I don't want to risk infecting 40 other dogs. What Thor doesn't realize is that July 4th is coming up, and he's going to spend the day in red, white and blue. MWA hahahahaha. I think Thom looks fabulous. I don't know if it's just the picture, but he looks very tough and punk.

Thor's Human Donating Member | I'm watching 'Groomer Has It' and they are dyeing poodles all kinds of crazy colors. I'm loving it.

| Sure as long as it could be done safely. It wouldn't really show up on Ellie though. Maybe I should get a Maltese???

| I dyed Mitzy's topknot pink with koolaid. Its real easy and safe. I did LOADS of research on it and actually did my hair first (in the back LOL). You should also do a test patch before you do all over color. I got 2 packs of koolaid mixed it with conditioner and made it into a paste and applied it during her bath. I washed it out after a few minutes and it faded within days, she didnt even notice it was in her hair. You can see slight peices of pink in her topknot in our avatar but its gone now. Took about 3-4 baths to completely wash out, however she is white so im sure her hair took better to it. Toothpaste is supposed to take it out too or lighten it..

| I thought Thor was cute and punk. I love to see mohawks and love them even more when owners let me give their dogs a mohawk. Would you happen to have a front shot of Thor? In the past I use to dye my 1st poodles topknot with food coloring. She had orange for Halloween (she was a pumpkin) and red for Christmas. |

| my yorkie got into dye when I was doing some tye dying. He walked clear up to the bowls and put one paw in the pink bowl and the other paw in the blue bowl. and then just stood there. I was in shock. Lucky he didn't run off and track blue/pink paw prints in the house. Well needless to say he stayed that color for quite sometime. Although I DO NOT reccomend using tye dye. I know there is dye specifically made for dog dyeing. DO IT!!! Who cares what people think. I take my pup to Petsmart and the dog park as often as I can and while he was pink/blue I got lots of laughs and compliments LOL. Have fun and be safe! I included a pic. Excuse the DORK (me) holding the ADORABLE pup. Yeah I forgot my gloves. I was pink and blue for about 1 month. |

| I gave my Buttons a green Mohawk once. I used food coloring, because I wanted something a deep color on his light grey hair. It turned out very nicely and he never experienced any skin problems. And I thought it went very nicely with his spike collar!!! He got sooo many compliments |
