Hey everyone! 
I absolutely love doing creative grooms, particularly dyeing dogs. Unfortunately for me, in the area I live, most people just want short clips that are easy to maintain. Not once have I had the opportunity to dye a dog since starting my career after finishing my course.
I dream of one day getting a white Standard Poodle but that won't be for a while.
For a while now I've been tossing up the idea of dyeing the white tip of my Australian Shepherd's tail. I wouldn't want to dye anything other than the tip of his tail because I love his natural coat... but at the same time I'm itching to dye something, haha!!
My Mum thinks it wouldn't look good and I'm nervous that it would look bad which is the only reason I haven't done it yet... The only dye I have is a semi permanent one, but I'm pretty sure it lasts for quite a while.
What do you guys think, would it look good? If so what colour do you think would suit him best? I was thinking blue, someone i know suggested orange.
Would the dye even take well to his fur? Would I be able to trial the look with food colouring perhaps? I assume food colouring doesn't last long?
Thanks in advance for anyones thoughts
Here's a photo of my boy, Koda (hopefully the photo will show up)
