    My dog is irritated by the scent and is chewing his fur, but the dye won't come out with warm water and shampoo. I don't want him to get sick. What should I do?

    You should try bathing your dog again, and if that doesn't help, take him to a groomer. If all else fails, use a cone to prevent licking and rinse him until the irritation subsides.
