To Dye For!

Is your dog in a fashion rut? Is her hair color a little dull? Pet Esthe, a company in Japan, sells safe hair dye for dogs. They also make doggie nailpawlish, chamomile and lavender aromatic bath salts, a moisturizing mud masque, "Happy Time" perfume, and moisturizing foot lotion for dogs.

People dye their poodles pink, have rainbow retrievers, and dye their dogs to look just like panda bears. Could this trend be hitting the U.S. soon? It would be so relaxing to go to Bumble and Bumble with Fido for some blonde highlights and some panda paint for the pooch.

For all of you who think dying dogs to look like panda bears is cruel, Columbo's owner says that it actually saves lives. Columbo was a rescue dog about to be destroyed. He thinks if we dyed all rescue dogs, a lot more would be adopted.
