Does anyone here color their light-colored dog?

Actually, I used black to give her hair a gray color because whatever color you use of food coloring is supposed to come out much lighter. Like when I used the red food color to get her to come out pink. Shaving a dark haired dog who spends most of its time outdoors in the summer months in Arizona would expose him to sunburn, so I wouldn't advise doing that.

I decided to give Gigi another bath today to get out the color and it is practically all out (thank God!). Next time I get the desire to see her a different color, I will definitely take her to my groomer. They just charge so much to do it, but at least it would be done right and I wouldn't have all the mess to deal with.
