The dog is just about the only thing that my son has not tried to draw on. Luckily, his main medium is chalk (he gets it by crawling out the dog door and raiding the sidewalk chalk). All of our permanent markers are high up and out of reach (which is probably more of a dare to him than a means of keeping it out of his reach). Oh my God!

It's the alcohol in the hairspray that does the job. But it's diluted enough that you won't bleach or dry out or otherwise damage the dog's hair or gentle skin with it.

The goof actually liked to wear sunglasses. He was protective and lovable but dumb as a box of rocks. One day I came home and my kids had used colored markers to draw additional spots on him. At the top of his head there was an outlined spot that was labeled "Insert Brain Here" I couldn't stop laughing when I saw that. Cappy must have liked it. When he was feeling ignored he would pick up a pencil or pen and drop it at our feet. He's been gone almost fifteen years and I still miss him. *sigh* Captain was a loyal and large (90lbs) dalmatian who endured the kids dressing him and laying on him who gladly pulled the kids around the yard on their sleds or in the wagon.
