Ashley Speilmann, from Illinois, took to TikTok this week to share a clip of her family dog – a miniature schnauzer named Rizzo – after Rizzo had been to the groomers.

“When your groomer slays making your dog into The Grinch,” she wrote over the clip.

Many weren’t impressed by the actions of Ashley.

“This dog didn’t ask to have this done to it,” one said.

Another added: “The dog looks so sad.”

“I just. wouldn’t,” one added, while another called the four-legged pooch a “poor baby”.

The groomer behind the design, Hailey Degner, told US radio show 23WIFR the dyes were vegan and non-toxic.
