... what would Cute Overload think of THIS?

Yes, I did his entire body (even the orange bits). I used food colouring.

All the other horses teased him in the playground while I callously giggled :(

They were like, "JJ, we can't even see green and we can tell you look ridiculous. We know she dyed you. WE KNOW. HAHAHAHAH"

He was traumatised :( It was cruelty.

We totally won though.

	How much food coloring did you need? I think that's how they used to put mustaches on Wishbone. I seem to remember a "behind-the-scenes" where he's trying to lick it off because its beef flavored or something. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I can't remember all that well ... several bottles at least, but less than you'd think because I diluted it (I can't imagine how long it would have taken to come out if I hadn't! Sweet jesus! It took about three months for the green to come out of his mane as it was). I just googled Wishbone and AWW! Cute <3 (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Ha ha, I left some chestnut color enhancer on my horse too long, once, and it turned her white markings pink. So I tried to correct it with bluing. You can guess how well that turned out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It was a very vibrant magenta. XD I got some odd looks at the show the next day. Fortunately it was just a schooling eventing show, so the judges were pretty laid back about it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	LOL XD That's awesome. I thought I got strange looks when my horse's mane stayed green in the aftermath of his dye job but I think you beat me! At least he was coordinated with my cross country colours, haha. (Reply to this)(Parent)

Ahh, but you see although to the untrained eye he looks like a totally happy horse who - along with his friends - was completely and utterly oblivious to his different colours ... a TRUE INTERNET ANIMAL EXPERT can see the soul melting horror in his eyes. *nods sagely* see the way he's holding his lips? A TRUE INTERNET ANIMAL EXPERT can tell that's because he's singing Linkin Park.

	I had friends who constantly dyed their horses' manes green. I recommend it! :D Be aware, though, you have to use extra to make it show in mane/tail hair ... and it can take a LONG time to come out. Not that that's necessarily a bad thing ... :D (Reply to this)(Parent)
