Whats the best way to dye your dog pink?

Question

I have a multi-media class that would like me to dye my poodle pink for a video their doing so whats the best way to do it? I dont want a pastel pink but rather a hot pink... I've heard a lot about food dye and egg dye but im not sure if food dye will last long and I dont know how to do the egg dye. and please dont tell me that dye my dog is wrong. I know that there are humain ways to do it and by no means is my poodle the dog that lives in a purse...(she's too big for that)

I've already talked to the local groomers here and the nearest one who does it for less then $80 lives in LA (thats 25 miles away) so I'm trying to go with my groomers adivce which is to use a veggy based dye. and I've tryed koolaid on me and it didnt work well. halloween hair spray acts like hair spray and makes your hair stiff. and my "poor pooch" doesnt mind me playing with her hair, this is no diffrent, I would never use damging dyes on me or her so please dont post hater aswers. as to the egg dye would I still use vinerger???? cus I'd rather not use vinager

thank you soooo much chetco!!!! that exactly what I needed to know!

thank you Angela M! beets? I would never have thought of that! are you sure it's pink though?

Answer 1

PetSilk makes hair coloring for pets.

You can also safely use Manic Panic or Punky Color (get those at Sally Beauty Suply)
Just be careful (with anything) around the eyes.

You could use sidewalk chalk (moisten the chalk in hot water, draw lines on the hair and use a brush to brush through. Or you could also use Blo Pens (at any craft store..be sure you use the non toxic ones..not the fabris ones) Both of those ways are time consuming, but they wash out after a couple baths. If you have a mini or a Toy Poodle I guess it wouldnt take as long. Takes forever on a Standard tho.
KoolAid would work too, but you have to add alot of packages to get the pink you would want.

Good luck and have fun!

Answer 4

Go to a kitchen supply or baker's supply shop, and get the tiny jar of hot pink coring..Mix the entire jar in a container that hold enough water to cover your dog well...Such as a gallon bucket for a large poodle, or a 2 liter bottle for a smaller dog..Add 1/4 cup of white vinegar per gallon of water..so a 2 liter bottle would need 4 Tablespoons....Pour it up in a spritz spray bottle, and apply by spritzing the dog until at least all outer hair is wet..No real need to wet to the skin...
The vinegar helps to keep it from rubbing off, and it will last longer.
.If you have a bakery that makes their own stuff, you may be able to buy the food coloring paste or powder from them..

You can also get it on eBay or other catalogs on line..

Answer 5

Besides the excellent ideas already expressed, they do have a special dye for this sort of thing. Sorry I don't know what it's called but you could find out from PetCo or your vet.
Being as it's designed for dogs supposedly they won't be allergic to it like they can be to food coloring.

Answer 6

Beet juice. Been used for centuries to color fabrics and hair. Get canned beets and drain off the liquid, heat up to about 100deg, and add about 2tbsp vinegar per pint (sorry, but that's what keeps it from rinsing out again). Pour it into your dog's fur, and let it sit for about 45 mins, then rinse well. My mom used it to dye sheep's wool once for a shearing and knitting demo at a country life museum. It will wash out eventually, too, so you won't have a pink pooch forever...

Answer 7

Dogs are one of the most common pets world wide. Because of this, it makes sense that there are many different dog training methods out there. Unfortunately, most of these training methods are less than ideal to use for your pet.

Because of all of these differing dog training methods out there, many new pet owners get confused which to follow and even start using methods that are highly inaccurate or counter-productive for their pets. This article will show you the top three dog training methods that you should avoid like the plague!

Method 1: Using Punishment as Training

You'd be surprised how many pet owners use punishment as their "bread and butter" for obedience training. Unfortunately, as with bread and butter, this is one of those dog training methods that is very "unhealthy" for both you and your pet.

Think about it. When you punish anything, whether it's a dog or a human being, you're using negative energy. It's like you're a dictator and your pet is your slave. This is a very negative relationship between both and will only lead to problems in the future.

You want to establish a positive, loving relationship with your dog. Punishment is NOT how to do it. There are much more effective training approaches out there that work much better.

Method 2: The "One Person in the House Trains the Dog" Method

I couldn't think of a more creative title so I just named it the most descriptive title! Basically this is one of those common dog training methods that people follow without even realizing it! Here's a common scenario:

There is one dog and multiple people in the house that play with, feed, and take care of the dog. Out of those many people, only one actually trains the dog to listen and obey them. The others merely play with the dog.

This dynamic is highly ineffective if you are serious about training your dog. The reason is that only one person training a dog, no matter how great their training skills are, will not get the dog to listen to everybody. The dog will realize that it needs to behave around one person, but know that the other people don't care. Dogs are smart! They know who the "dominant" people are and who they can get away with more "mischief" with.

I've seen this problem happen with many pet owners where they try really hard to train their pet but cannot achieve any results. The reason is often that while one person is trying to train their pet to not do one thing, the other people in the house are actually rewarding the very thing!

An example of this is when dogs jump on people. This is not good behavior and one person could be training them to stop this. At the same time, another family member may think it's cute and pet and cuddle them after they do this. What's a dog to think when different reactions happen with different people?

Method 3: Following No Dog Training Methods - Using Intuition

I know many pet owners that think that because they have children and successfully raised them that they can get their dog to listen to them as well! Aside from the big ego, this approach assumes that dogs learn exactly the same way that humans learn.

While this is true to some extent, dogs are dogs and people are people. Different approaches are needed for different animals. While they may be more subtle than training a giraffe, they are still there and have a big impact on the results you'll see.

It is important to understand exactly what you are teaching your pets to do and not to do. If you don't, you may very well end up doing things counter-productive.

The best solution to this is to pick up a book or go find some training course out there that has a depth of coverage on the topic.

Other Poor Methods of Approach

If you've been trying to train your dog for a few weeks now and haven't seen any real results then I'm pretty sure that you're following a "Method to Avoid" approach. While I only listed three methods, there are thousands of other approaches that don't work. Take the results that you are getting as a signal if you are using a good method or a poor one. If you haven't seen any good results from your approach, move on and try another one.

Answer 8

I am a retired dog groomer. My brother had a poodle years ago, he dropped her off to me to clip. mwahaaaaa, what a sister can do to **** stir her brother....

As a joke I dyed the fluffy bits you leave on a poodle clip.
I used just plain old food dye. It did not touch her skin, but heck if we can eat it, on the dogs fur it could not do too much. Not like she licked it off or anything. After a couple of washes it was all gone.

The poodle, well she was well a truely loved, no doubting that, spoiled rotten, even slept on his bed, heck I loved her too. Miss her to this day. She is deceased now. She suffered no ill effects from the dye, she passed at a ripe age of 16 years.

Go for it, dogs enjoy life too, sometimes it can get too serious, opions can be too serious, dogs enjoy life as well. Never forget it.

pssst. my dog has been dressed up in halloween, wedding, party and she just looks at me as if to say oooooh Mum, pleassse, why??? ok, I will do it, just for you cause I know you love me sooo much, and I just love the bacon bits, your bed, the couch, heck I just love you regardless.

Answer 9

We have used Easter egg dye on rabbits (and it works great). For a hot pink, use a concentrated mix. It should last a couple of weeks with no harmful effects.

Answer 10

Im not sure this is the best way but it wont hurt your Dog. We used Kool Aid Once. It works and is non toxic.
