DOG Dexter’s reddy for anything after his ears were mistakenly coloured for Christmas with permanent dye.
Owner Kim Darby thought she was using a temporary type on the Maltipoo’s floppy lugs.
The mum of two said: “I spent £25 on the dye and researched it thoroughly to ensure it was 100 per cent safe, vegan, natural ingredients etc.
“I was so focused I completely missed the ‘permanent’ part of the description.”
A groomer told PR manager Kym, from Rugeley, Staffs, that it could take a year to grow out fully.
Kym, 51, said partner Steve had bought 16-month-old Dexter a hooded coat.
She added: “And he is still refusing to walk him in daylight!

“He will only be seen outside with him after dark.”
Kym added: “He is a very pampered pooch.
“He was spoilt with a variety of festive outfits and I just thought the fur dye would be funny and cute – but a very temporary thing to do.”
