Black puppy v white paint = Dalmation!

KinkyDee

Has anyone else been silly enough to let their puppy out of sight when there's paint around? OMG, Dee's plastered - it's all over her face, tail - everything!

What you do think - wait for it to come off as her fur grows, or should I get it off with white spirit? It doesn't seem to bother her, but she does look very silly... Embarassed

I must get a photo....

Is it gloss paint ? Shocked

If it is still wet ,try rubbing oil into it to loosen it
Would ring the vet for advice

Go for vet's advice. I am not sure it would be adviseable to rub it off with white spirit, as the dog may lick afterwards and I don't know what the effects can be. It might be toxic??

In the meantime, do take a piccie. Very Happy

Dogs and paint don't mix. Rolling Eyes

Oh, and my OH once managed to get paint on the cat when he was doing his shed. It just came off in the end.

Been there, done that and got the t-shirt. Fortinately, Shadow only had a very thin stripe down the front edge of his ears and a tiny little bit on the very tip of his tail. The emulsion washed off his tail but the gloss stripes had to grow out, there's no way I was going to try and wash his ears with white spirit. Looked a picture for a week or two though.

Definitely need to see a picture....

I think I would be inclined to let it grow out don't fancy dogs and white spirit mixing but it would be worth phoning the vet and seeing what they have to say....

Good luck

Does this make her a labation or a dalmador???!!!! Laughing
