paint off a dog?
« on: August 02, 2007, 09:42:24 AM »
Been doing some painting and Bailey decided to sit against the skirting board just as it had been painted :005:  He is now sporting a white bum and tail :lol:  Good job he isnt a 'show' cocker.

So my question is how do you get paint off a cocker bearing in mind he doesnt like to be groomed with a brush, just likes a warm shower and towel dried, tried that and it hasnt came off but he doesnt seem that bothered with it so should I just leave it.
Loves my family and dog Bailey more than life its self

Been there done that :D

Will he tolerate a couple of snips with some thinning scissors? otherwise I'd just leave it too.

I remember once using expandable foam with a dodgy nozzle and getting it all over the place, the rabbit then walked in it to investigate what it was, I picked her up then got her stuck to my hands and eventually had to cut her off me. She ended up with hugh chunks of fur missing and I looked like a werewolf for a while. :lol:

 :rofl1: :rofl1:

At least the cat learned his lesson, Pippin the Terrible (the rabbit, and she didn't get that name from being good) is still as nosey as ever. :lol:

vegatable oil will get gloss paint off the dogs coat. just stick him in the bath(no water tho) and start to massage the oil into the affected area. i would only bother is its a lot of paint. if its just a little bit i would leave it.

No advice, but am really enjoying the paint/glue disaster stories.

Anyone got any more? :005:
