Dying his coat gets him more attention not less so he's extra happy. It's not as though he sits in front of the mirror pouting about the shade of blue I used. Get real people, dogs don't care what color their hair is. We are superficial not them. Go ahead and dye em if it makes you happy just make sure your using dog friendly products.

I have two Standard Poodles that both get their hair dyed. They both get very excited when they see the grooming table is out, and appear to enjoy the pampering and preening that is involved with grooming them. As long as proper dye is used and precautions are taken to insure the dog's safety I see nothing wrong. They walk differently after being groomed and dyed, more confident more outgoing, tails constantly wagging. My best description is: They "strut". Tail docking and ear cropping for looks alone is far more barbaric(Both practices were started to prevent injury of the dog in doing the job they were bred to do and do have their place in some working dogs lives), as is de-clawing a cat. Where is the outrage over the horrific atrocities committed against racing greyhounds, whippets, galgos(spanish greyhounds) and fighting dogs. My dogs are the most well fed(not fat, well fed as in quality of food) and cared for dogs I know. Do not presume to tell me I abuse my dogs. I adopted a retired racing greyhound who was abused for the first three years of his life and my family and I did everything for him to make his new life a good one. When we found out he had bone cancer we drove 3 1/2 hrs away to OSU Veterinary clinic to enroll him in an experimental drug trial, amputated his leg to try to stop the cancer from spreading, made the 3 1/2 hr trip (one way) every other week so he could get 8hr. chemotherapy/checkup sessions. There is nothing I wouldn't do to make my pet's lives happier and healthier. Do some research before judging people and their pets, there are very few breeds that haven't suffered in some way from our selective breeding, a little hair dye is probably the least of cruel thing man has done to his "best friend". BTW the "poodle squared" picture is complete fantasy, and obviously Photoshopped. The "dyed poodle" picture from Dave Barry's Blog is a Bedlington Terrier, and the Panda dog is a Maltese Poodle mix. So much for Poor Poodles. There are far worse things being done to animals than dyeing their fur. I have two Standard Poodles that both get their hair dyed.

It's not cruel is my own opinion. Dogs don't know that they're being dyed, let's be honest. They're colour blind. And it doesnt harm the dogs in any way if done correctly of course. If anything it wilol attract more attention from the dog, and if that dog was my dog he'd be the happest chap in the world. He LOVES being played with by young childeren in the street. Okay, so it's cosmetic for the owner - so what? WHo's to say that the dog doesnt get care and love? It's not like the dog cares, or even knows what's going on. It willnjust think it's going for it's regular shampoo. I see no bad point at all when it comes to dying your dogs fur. There’s a malti-poo and a Bedlington terrier in your ‘poor poodle’ part. haha.

To each thier own though I suppose. I am inclined to believe that most dogs LOVE the kind of attention they get from this type of extensive grooming. I also believe that owners who go this far off the beaten path for thier animals appearance care for and attend to thier animals a great deal. I can't see this kind of owner putting thier animal in pain or otherwise allowing ANY harm to come to them. As for weather these animals get any flack from thier peers about thier color...I can't see how that would factor in since dogs are color blind. I personally wouldn't go to such extremes, but, mostly because I think I would get flack from MY peers for doing so. Just my two cents. Wow, this is kind of funny… To each thier own though I suppose.
