I have some friends who use easter egg dye on their white cat every year at easter - she really comes out bright, and not pastel. They do it every year, and it lasts for a few weeks. Don’t worry - the cat seems nonchalant about the whole thing when they do it - they just paint it on her.

Yeah, but I think it’s dopey to do that. You can safely use food coloring - just don’t get it in the eyes or ears.

Why would you want to expose your poor dog to hair dye. It would dry their skin out and make them itchy. Hey just because people in CA are doing it does it make it right. I mean they don’t mind living in a shaake and bake area would you want to live down there with the threat of earthquakes. I am not dissing on people from CA. Just trying to make a point to this person that if someone else does it, does it make it right. There are sadistic people who torture animals does that make it right? There are also people who sacrifice animals , does that it make it right for you to do it? Have a mind of your own and please do not dye the poor doggie, for his/her sake.

Food coloring is often used. Some people use Kool-Aid

Others use pastel chalk.

In CA people do many strange and stupid things. This being one of them. I haven’t heard of it but on the save side you can practice with food coloring. But read the labor to make sure it doesn’t have bad ingredients in it. Also, they sell different color temporary, washable hair color. It’s not a dye but I am not sure what it contains.

Good luck. Poor puppy

yeah i’ve seen that as well.
i’m quite sure that it is a safe thing and not harmful to the dog.
groomers can do it but i’m sure you’d have to take them somewhere special b/c i don’t think all groomers do it.

If your dog has white hair, you can use food coloring.
