"That's so bad it's not cute its ridiculously cruel. Washing that dog clean isn't going to be fun, the only person who will find this funny is the dumb owner of that poor dog. Such an unnatural thing to do", one commenter said.

"This is just the stupidest cruelest thing I've seen in a while. I love Pokémon, but this is just plain moronic! Learn to treat animals with respect!", another user said criticizing the act.

“People need to know that there is no safe way to dye a dog or any other animal,” a spokesperson from PETA said in an interview.

While our four-legged best friends appear to be happy and energetic when we ask them to do things for us, to go beyond the line and perform acts such as dying them with whatever color we want in the name of pleasuring ourselves is unacceptable and can be considered to be worse than any act an animal is capable of doing. -Kami Media
