We did a fund raiser last year... I painted the owners to look like their dog... It got some press... and the always help the cause.

Next month I'm going to be doing volunteer painting at a 5k run that benefits pets (Rescue Run for Pets Promise - It's there biggest fund raiser of the year). In addition to painting the kids, I thought it would be neat to offer some glitter designs on the dogs. I was thinking of placing the design on the back of their neck or high up between their shoulders where they can't lick it. Then, using a stencil put cute designs on them. Here are my questions: 1) Have any of you done this before? I thought I'd take a friend to do the "dog" work so there's no cross contamination. 2) Can you think of any reason this might irritate the dogs skin? If it's cosmetically safe for humans I can't see this would be a problem. 3) What suggestions might you have for a way to make it stick to the hair? I wouldn't want to use anything "adhesive". I was thinking some kind of hair gel and patting the glitter down on top of it while it's "wet". I'd really appreciate hearing your thoughts and suggestions on how to make this work. Dog people love their dogs as much as they do their kids and I'm sure would spend money to make them look glamorous. Thoughts? Suggestions? Am I crazy? Thanks in advance for all your help!
