'Poor puppy': Woman's attempt to dye her dog bright red goes terribly wrong - making a huge mess in her bathroom and sparking a debate about whether it's safe to color pets' fur
A woman's attempt to dye her dog bright red went terribly wrong — making a huge mess in her bathroom and staining the walls, floor, and bathtub.
Her actions also fueled debate on TikTok about whether or not it's cruel to color a pet's fur.
Isa Beastly, a designer and hairstylist, said she saw other people dyeing their dogs' fur on the app, so she decided to try it herself — a decision she's soon come to regret.
She mixed orange and pink dye together hoping to turn her small, wire-haired terrier red, but instead turned animal bright pink and left blotches of dye all over her bathroom.
She shared the fiasco on TikTok and it quickly vent viral — but while some found the clip funny, other commenters are horrified by what she did to the 'poor puppy.'

Approving commenters insisted the pup looked 'cute' and 'adorable'
'Don’t really know why you’re doing? Don’t risk it — get a well-respected, responsible professional groomer to dye your dog’s locks for you,' the dog company wrote.
It also reminds pet-owners to keep the dye away from the dog's eyes and mouth and to never use human hair-dye on an animal.
'Do not use products made for humans. This cannot be stressed enough,' the website reads.
'Human hair dyes contain hydrogen peroxide or bleach to lift the natural color. Both chemicals are extremely harsh and can cause chemical burns, sores and dog hair shedding.'
