Don't believe me? Here you go: LAWRENCE V. TEXAS

In Texas. There are still states that have the statute on their books, as well as numerous other outdated and ridiculas laws.

Look out, here comes PETA!

And to address the issue of animal cruelty....has it been shown that the dog was harmed in any way? She would have had to cause the dog physical injury to be guilty of animal cruelty. I don't imagine the dog gives a damn whether it is pink, purple, or white as long as it is fed and cared for.

Because it's considered animal cruelty. How would you like it if someone dyed hair blue ?

Plus she was warned before and continued to disregard the law. Therefore she deserves it.

What about declaw, devoicing, ear & tail docking ? They are legal in America and Canada but not dye with organic product on pets?

It would be different story if she use chemical product to dye her dog but she only use organic product which is a harmless.

It's insane that they chase after her for such a minor thing, when there are countless people beating and abusing animals. Why target someone who is taking good care of their pets?

Right

I still think nothing wrong to use organic product to dye the pets but I personally prefer to wear pink pet collar to support breast cancer instead of dye on my pet. IMO.

Something like that.

I feel bad for woman about got $1,000 fine for dye her dog, if dye contain organic then it's not harm to pets or animals, that's right.

I hope that she will win the lawsuit.

Yes, I agree with you over the difference between chemical an organic. Yes I feel bad for her, too and hope the judge will give her right because use organic product is a harmless.

Yes I agree that it's not animal abuse to use organic product to color their pets.

I compared the pet owner with the parents who allows to dye their pets and children's hair. The pet owner have to pay fine $1,000 because it's animal abuse to law's eye but what about children? *scratch my head* For law - dye animal with organic product is an animal abuse and not child abuse if the parents dye their children's hair... ???

It is also discouraged for pregnant women to dye their hair... kinda like getting a tattoo while a woman is pregnant. There are always risks, but animals are at greater risk.

I would understand if they use chemical product but use organic product is a harmless.

Hair is Hair, no matter what...

Not pertaining to the sodomy statue since SCOTUS overturned the law. But yes, there are outdated and ridiculas laws still on the books.

Based on the logic you have used in this thread, then we can assume that these outdated, discrimintory, and utter riducuals laws that are still on the books should be widely enforced across the board simply because they are still on the books., despite that fact that they are not applicable to all situations.

How it's absurd. I wish I can work for police, I will not enforce for stupidity. I don't care if I get fired. I am only care for the people, just not law.
Good for her! I hope she would kick their [...] for win at the court!

I have learned sooo much about PETA. It amazed me how they do it. I was shocked and I definitely don't agree with PETA at all. I had a staff meeting about a month ago about PETA. anyway.. sorry its off topic.

I was thinking.. if coloring on a dog or cat or cow or pig, whatever you want to name is not allowed, why is the grooming allowed? Its the way the owner wants it to look. grooming, shaving, pulling hair out of ears, sedating, etc is okay but not ok to dye? I'm not against it or for it. I don't consider it animal cruelty though. I love animals and when I see animals that has a spike on its head, its like awww how cute! when I saw that pink poodle, i said awww how cute! that's just the owner's personality how they like their animals to be. and Agreed that as long as its fed and taken care of that's all that matters.

I am disagree with you, Liebling. I would say okay dye on the dog
with organic product IS NOT animal abuse.

The only law we are talking about is the dying of color on animals....

If one has an issue with the said law, take it up with your legislature/city council as they are the ones that pass these "outdated, discriminatory, and utter ridiculous laws that are on the books."

But remember that some of these laws were pass for a reason.

Even though she used organics to dye the dog's color, some organic chemistry may not be acceptable to the dog.

Like would you feed your dog chocolate knowing that it can kill the dog?

And...what about the dog's feelings since one of you members is a therapist?

I don't think she would intentionally hurt the dog if she knew it would harm if dye.

Almost everybody knows not to feed animals chocolate, if the pet dies.. then the owner knows he/she was wrong to feed chocolate. Same if the lady knew it would harm her dog to dye it pink, she probably wouldn't have done it.

When a dog owner, a punk lady/guy who likes to dye hair color into dark purple, and black. Is it ok if she/he dye her dog into a punk color like dark purple, black, pink, and white WITH ORGANIC PRODUCTS? Where is the beautiful natural dog color ?

Pets should not be modified by humans. Leave beautiful, and natural pets alone.

If my cat is all white, and just have one black spot, is it OK if I dye it white, so my cat turns all WHITE? Why should I hide the beauty cat?

Did you expect the Animal Control, or Police investigate all colored pets to find out which materials pet owners use to dye their own pet?
