Instructions
Fill a large bowl with lukewarm water. If you are using many colors, fill up a few different bowls so each color has its own bowl.
Drop three to five drops of food coloring into the bowl of water. Mix it with a spoon and see if it's the color you desire. If you want the color to be darker or more vibrant, add more food coloring. Only add one to two drops at a time, because the color can change quickly.
Brush your poodle's fur and get out all of the knots. If you have time, get your poodle groomed so its fur is the right length and shape.
Dab the sponge in the colored water and pat it onto the fur that you wish to dye. Continue sponging until the area is thoroughly dyed. If you are using different colors, you should use a new space for each color.
Blow dry the poodle's fur so that the color can set. You don't want the dog walking around the house with wet food coloring, because it can get on your furniture and carpet.
