Anyone know of a non toxic dye for animals?

I thad nothing to with what they think about their fur....it has to do with the fact that tey have no fur. There is no buffer of hair as there is with say a poodle or a persioan getting a topical application of chemicals to color their fur.I don't agree with that either, My cats wear clothes too but I still wouldn't dream ofdyeing Woe (who is Gray longhaired) or Lexie who is a hairless. Woe is Gray....he can stay that for Samhain and the rest of the year. Lex is naked, when cold she wears sweaters and jackets she will be wearing a fancy jacket on samhain if it is chilly.If not then she will be wearing what I appreciated most of her breed her soft skin unadorned.

and Crow tell King he is hot! lol

It's spelled had, not thad.
It's spelled they, not tey.
It's spelled Persian, not persioan.
It's of dyeing, not ofdyeing.

That makes no sense at all. Are you implying your poor spelling will make it easier for her to read? If that is the case you are being extremely rude, she asked for advice, this is uncalled for.

The web site, groomer to groomer, interviewed professional dog groomers about coloring pet fur. One recommends a "semi-permanent product called Punky Color." Unsweetened Kool-Aid is another possibility, but, apparently, it washes out as soon as the dog gets wet.

Hair stylist Max Maddux agrees that only white dogs should be given dye jobs. Apparently, the dye doesn't work as well with darker pets. He recommends the brands Pravana, ManicPanic, Punky Color.

Of course, that's no guarantee the dog will like the dye job. Also, it's smart to check with your vet before you do the dying. Some dyes can be harmful and may hurt the dog.

good luck,

Mike

for some reason I doubt it - but that's a good excuse for misspelling.

Great post, kind of brings to mind the saying "those that live in glass houses should't throw stones"
