The worst haircut of my life came from a mall barber who had a āpurple-tailed chihuahua.ā I thought it was some mystical breed I hadnāt heard of before, but no, it was literally just a chihuahua with a purple-dyed tail.
Same. I was so confused, I handed my mobile phone to my boyfriend (who knows a lot more about dogs than I do), stammering "Is that... is that ......a *real* dog....??" š
i chose a giraffe because of his long legs. It doesn't show it too much in this pic but in person he looks like a chihuahua on stilts. Super long legs!

I always specify. Partially for people who think I'm harming my dog, and partially so if anyone else wants to do it to their own dog, they'll realize that not all products are safe.
Itās because everyone on Reddit is a self-certified veterinarian that also surmises every single ounce of context about every situation from a single picture.

Donāt trust pet safe dye! (Granted, this owner got carried away) this poor cat didnāt survive. (Source: work for a Vet School/Hospital)
most dyes aren't safe for pets and most pet safe dyes aren't safe for cats. there's very few safe for cats. I only know of one. (I have also worked for a vet hospital)
Crazy liberty also had an issue with a bad batch several months back that got recalled. Idk if that was involved with that kitty's case. I don't know if they even make a cat formula though.
Oh my lawd.
I have a chihuahua husky mix.
The chihuahua is the father. The mother was so in heat she laid down and just let that little man go to town. Apparently they found them connected with her tossing him around the room like a rag doll the poor thing (he was fine, my dog is so freaking cute)

He reminds me of my boy, is he a chihuahua mix? š„ŗ
yep, I did a DNA test and he was almost exactly half chihuahua and there were a bunch of breeds in the other half including chow, poodle, pomeranian, lab and shih tzu.
I knew it, can spot a chi a mile off! My boy is mixed with shih-tzu & yorkshire terrier, we named him Eddy after one of the hyenas from The Lion King š„² amazing dye job btw, extremely talented!
š¤£š¤£š¤£ His favorite dogs are always small, fluffy, and old. I used to work at a doggy daycare when he was a puppy and his best friend there was an 18 year old bichon who was blind, deaf, and could barely walk lol.
Does the paint wash off, or is it a dye?
How does he cooperate when you're doing it? Ā I feel like my dog would need to be on morphine for me to do that
It's dye. My dog is really good at staying still. He had a leg injury as a puppy and had to be on crate rest for 6 weeks. That's hard on any dog but especially hard on a puppy. To occupy his brain, we spent a lot of time practicing tricks that don't require movement (leave it, look at the camera, balancing a treat on the nose, etc) so now as an adult dog he is so good at being still. I posted a video of him once and someone thought he was taxidermy because he was so still XD
Supposedly there's some human ones that are safe but I don't know which ones so I just stick to the ones that say "for dogs". It doesn't just have to be safe for the different PH level of dog skin but also incase they lick it.
We had a fence covered in vines and my daughter and the neighbor kid picked a hole in the vines so they could play thru the fence. Never figured out why they preferred that to playing directly, but they did that more often...

This made me burst out laughing š
Get a dog lil ongy.
Did you dye his fur?!
lol bruh
Breed is mini giraffe.
yes, with dog-safe dye. He's my little giraffe š¦
Aw, that was your chance to lead me on that heās a new breed or hybrid. āNa, heās just a giraffestiff.ā
I hate to burst your bubble, but Iām pretty sure itās a giraffghan hound
Girhuahua mix.
I ended up with Chiraffe. Iām not sure what I like better.
If it means anything, chiraffe got a hearty laugh out of me
Hoping the giraffe was the mother
That was hard to pronounce!
Nah, itās one of those fancy hybrid cats
As the owner of an affie, I am not going to be able to stop thinking about this. I wish I could die his hair like a giraffe.
Lol r/yourjokebutbetter
winner
New pokemon???
Giruff
"You've never heard of the giraffestiff? Its what you get when u breed a Giraffe and a chihuahua "
Girwawa?
Thatās actually a mini giraffestiffā¦..
Well, if youāre going by TKC standards, sure, but the AKC only recognizes one standard for giraffapoos.
Giraffordshire terrier
It's a Girihuahua
I also thought he was a new breed.
TIL people dye their dogs fur.
The worst haircut of my life came from a mall barber who had a āpurple-tailed chihuahua.ā I thought it was some mystical breed I hadnāt heard of before, but no, it was literally just a chihuahua with a purple-dyed tail.
Saw not too long ago a little white dog dyed pink.
There's a famously bizarre Korean massage parlor in my town known for it's pink miniature poodle.Ā Never been but the Google reviews are WILD
Dude looks more like a hyena. I mean I see the giraffe too, but that neck ain't fooling me.Ā
š¤£
LOL my inner monologue was like WTF kind of giraffe dog is that!?
Same. I was so confused, I handed my mobile phone to my boyfriend (who knows a lot more about dogs than I do), stammering "Is that... is that ......a *real* dog....??" š
Quite funny that you took a tiny tiny dog and dyed him to look like one of the biggest land animals š
i chose a giraffe because of his long legs. It doesn't show it too much in this pic but in person he looks like a chihuahua on stilts. Super long legs!
How long does it last? Cute dog!
3-5months
Looks kinda like hyena.
A very tiny hyena, that doesn't quite get it.
A hyeny.
Lol, he definitely has a confused vibe
A tyena
African painted dog
Omg A+ lol
You need to get a pic of him next to a real giraffe in the next few months, that would be epic lol
I actually googled if dog friendly zoos were a thing and they are not so unless something crazy happens, he's not meeting a real one.
Well, there were zebras loose in Washington, and an elephant loose in Montana, both recently, so anything is possible. š¤£

San Antonio zoo does a dog day
That would be a 2 day drive away so maybe not lol. But thanks for the heads up! if I ever move to Texas, I'll keep it in mind.
If you value your personal agency, dont move here...
Iām sure you had that ā dog - safe dye ā ready for this exact question
I always specify. Partially for people who think I'm harming my dog, and partially so if anyone else wants to do it to their own dog, they'll realize that not all products are safe.
lol I get you I wasnāt flaming you just here for the good laugh cause you had your ammo ready
Itās because everyone on Reddit is a self-certified veterinarian that also surmises every single ounce of context about every situation from a single picture.
That dog needs therapy, as the owner is showing so many red flags.Ā (Reddit)
Do you want to see my vegetarian license???
Well people on Reddit are whiny idiots who have no concept that there IS in fact dog safe dye
He looks like a baby hayena š
https://preview.redd.it/19m0xri5gvxc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=37d529b3b93a554dcf49684af8394228f0d9eeb9 Donāt trust pet safe dye! (Granted, this owner got carried away) this poor cat didnāt survive. (Source: work for a Vet School/Hospital)
Man, whoever did that to that cat never deserves to touch another animal again.
most dyes aren't safe for pets and most pet safe dyes aren't safe for cats. there's very few safe for cats. I only know of one. (I have also worked for a vet hospital) Crazy liberty also had an issue with a bad batch several months back that got recalled. Idk if that was involved with that kitty's case.

Ah. I thought his chihuahua mother had a LOT of explaining to do after your trip to the zoo.
Omg haha
ā¦ how!?
Oh, a Stiffraff!
No they come like this
That is the shortest giraffe I've ever seen š¦
I always wanted the mini giraffe from that commercial years ago
Can I interest you in a [house hippo](https://youtu.be/NBfi8OEz0rA?si=CV1Mu8fuLcStquzt) instead?
Ya damn right you can! Ps what a bizarre commercial
Closest thing I've found so far are hairless guinea pigs, but I still leave peanut butter toast crumbs around just in case
We had them, they are house hippos lol
Opulence, I has it.
I'm still mad that wasn't a real mini-giraffe.
This is the second time Iāve seen this pooch and Iām all for it
He's actually the largest you've ever seen, it's the perspective that's throwing you off
Miniature dog breeds are getting out of hand! Who needs a miniature hyena?!? /S
The laughing keeps me sane.Ā
Ah, the short-necked Chiraffe. What a rare beautiful sight to see!
Remarkable dog, the short-necked Chiraffe. Beautiful plumage!
What kind of dog is that?
he's a chihuahua mix
Is he mixed with a giraffe?
Now I'm picturing a tiny dog with a looming neck, that's at eye level with you lol.
Huh, that's weird, I'm picturing a giraffe banging a chihuahua.
I've always pictured a giraffe with low standards and a chihuahua with a ladder
Oh my lawd. I have a chihuahua husky mix. The chihuahua is the father. The mother was so in heat she laid down and just let that little man go to town. Apparently they found them connected with her tossing him around the room like a rag doll the poor thing (he was fine, my dog is so freaking cute)
You must provide the dog tax. You simply must.
>low standards lol.
Equally concerning lol
Cursed š
brown cow stunning š
I thought it was giraffe print? 
Thatās a brown cowā¦ stunning
Moheart reference?! YAAAAS!
Dog? All I see is a giraffe who had his neck amputated
where exactly does one get a mini giraffe ?

Chihuiraffe
Thatās the smallest fkin giraffe Iāve ever seen
Wtf is that
Its called a fence; itās intended to separate two or more areas.
by the look on their faces, that is what the other dogs are thinking lol but it's a very cute mini-giraffadog
Op dyed the dog
a dog
Jeffrey Giraffe has hit hard times since Toys "R" Us went down....
guess who he was last halloween 
What the fuck is that?
Wtf did you do to your dog?!?!?
White Dog: "look how they massacred my boy" Black Dog:" Ugh, Brotha Ugh, What's that brotha" Chiraffe: "I'm happy!"
Looks like a painted dog!
Girat
That's a weird looking Giraffe.
Thatās a giraffe, not a dog! Silly OP! /s
Whereās your dog? I only see a leopard.
The giraffe is on the wrong side of the enclosure. š
The other dogs must be thinking "what the fuck did they do to you?"
Is that a bengal catdog hybrid?
where is your dog? I see a Giraffe being adored by two doggos
Strange looking dog
This is weird. Also why
The dye job is top notch.
thank you! My dream job would be to be a creative dog groomer.
Seriously I thought it was professionally done. You have a niche, let it make you money!
If I could afford the insurance for it, I'd start with shelter dogs. Give them a fun look to help them get adopted.
That sounds really cool, but I bet a lot of kids would be disappointed that they do not indeed have "wiener-zebra" after several months.
What the hell is *that* guy's pokedex number?!
It's a giraffe hyena mix
How is this possible
I know right, Chihuahuas never make friends.
š¤£š¤£š¤£ His favorite dogs are always small, fluffy, and old. I used to work at a doggy daycare when he was a puppy and his best friend there was an 18 year old bichon who was blind, deaf, and could barely walk lol.
GMOs have gone too far
50% giraffe, 50% hyena. 100% a cutie pie.
Your hyena-leopard-dog is adorable.
Whereād you get the pocket giraffe?
My chocolate merle chi is not dyed: https://i.imgur.com/154DKCt.jpeg
LET HIM THROUGH
His fence friends are thinking what the hell happened to dave!! All little cuties
Ok but where'd you find a shiny teacup giraffe hyena?
hybrid giraffe?
My auto reaction was what breed is that?!?!?!? Got a good laugh after reading through the comments. Good job o.p.
The rarely seen north American stunted neck giraffe.
is it the offspring of a giraffe?
š¤Ø
Does the paint wash off, or is it a dye? How does he cooperate when you're doing it? Ā I feel like my dog would need to be on morphine for me to do that

Hyena got hold of an chihuahua??!
Excuse me maam, thats a giraffe.
That's why the Taco Bell dog vanished so suddenly, it went into witness protection as a giraffe!
r/whitepeopletwitter
Ummm
If his name isnāt giraffe, we canāt be friends.
Why did you spray paint your dog.
Ah I see you got the DLC skins
Christ almighty...
Ur giraffe is loose!!!!
I love chiraffes
Did you paint your dog ?
Fence friends: "What the heck is this and what has it done to our friend Victor...?"
What have you done to your dog...
Sir/Ma'am that's a Hyena cub
Your dog is a tiny hyena
Chihuahuas that can actually keep their eyes in their head are kind of cute.
Yr burying the lede with the caption. So cute.
Yeah. Everyone taking the bait though, so it was effective.
don't paint your pet....
Holy Moly I was so confusedā¦I thought I had seen every breed of dogā¦.then I see this magical creatureš§āāļøš§āāļø!!
GIRAFFE PUPPER
Thatās a giraffe
Sir/Mame/Other that's a giraffe
Dog safe dye!? Is people safe not safe enough!!!? š
Supposedly there's some human ones that are safe but I don't know which ones so I just stick to the ones that say "for dogs". It doesn't just have to be safe for the different PH level of dog skin but also incase they lick it.
Do they ever play without the fence?
Totally buried the lede there. Your dog is dyed to look like a giraffe. Thatās the interesting bit.
TIL Bengel chihuahuas are a thing!
baby giraffe for sale, now low balls. i know what i got
Wtf?
We had a fence covered in vines and my daughter and the neighbor kid picked a hole in the vines so they could play thru the fence. Never figured out why they preferred that to playing directly, but they did that more often...
This is so cruel. How could you do this to giraffe. Did you cut her legs and neck you monster.
Smallest giraffe i ever saw.
Have you painted that dog, sir?
Cute hyena
One of that dog's parents has a story to tell that I'm sure they don't remember.
You just gloss over the fact that there is a giraffe on my screen
Why the dog look like that?
What in tarnation?
Did you spray paint the dog?
