Many dog owners fear their cherished pets could be stolen, especially when it comes to rare and expensive breeds that often attract dognappers.

However, one woman’s unconventional method for protecting her dog has sparked a heated debate online. While some applaud her creativity, others are skeptical of her intentions.

Chloe owns a 2-year-old Great Pyrenees named Dandy, who stands out due to his striking look—his fur is bright red, thanks to pet-safe dye applied by his owner.

Her choice to dye Dandy red quickly sparked mixed reactions on TikTok. While some commenters expressed concern, posting messages like “poor dog” and questioning whether the dye is safe, others were captivated by his striking new look, drawing comparisons to Clifford the Big Red Dog.

Chloe reassured her followers that she exclusively uses vegan, pet-friendly dye—reportedly from Opawz—and later shared follow-up videos explaining the reasons behind Dandy’s bold transformation.

She explained that one of her reasons was to “keep him from getting stolen,” since the Great Pyrenees pup is a “rare breed in [her] area.”

Chloe also mentioned that Dan appears to like his new look, as he “loves people and kids,” and the red dye seems to make him “more approachable.”

Additionally, she shared that she hopes to “educate others on safe pet dye practices” and has posted other videos guiding her followers on how to safely dye their own dogs.
