Curl Up and Dye

Korea, unfortunately, is still a dog eating country, and those of us who live here see that a polar opposite phenomenon is happening at the same time: WHO CAN SPOIL HIS OR HER DOG THE MOST?

Everywhere you look, there are small dogs dressed in designer duds with profession hair cuts and dye jobs. Now, I'm all about treating one's dog like a child, but the dying seems a bit cruel. I mean, I would not dye a small child's hair. Anyway, I secretly think that the dyed dogs are super cute and hilarious. Every time, I go into a pet store to buy food, treats, etc. for Bear, I am met with a store full of Easter egg Fidos. My favorite is when groomers dye the dog's cheeks pink to look like blush. Again, I don't approve, but I think it's cute, so please don't rip me apart with comments. The dogs, despite receiving constant aesthetic torture, seem very happy, but most of them are spoiled and coddled so much that they do not like other dogs or people. It's obnoxious. Socialize your dogs, people!

So there you have it. Ugly people and ugly dogs are UNACCEPTABLE in Korea! Before you know it, the dog's will be receiving plastic surgery!

Don't worry. Many people have assured me that if I dye Bear, trouble will follow.






Also, Korea scientists have successfully cloned glow in the dark beagles. I'm all about scientific advances that can help humans, while avoiding animal abuse, but this is creepy. CHECK IT OUT
