I'll have to borrow the book from my sister. There were some old black & white photos where they had a bunch of black standard poodles with ads shaved into their fur. I'll see if she still has it, and I will scan the pics in.

You can find a reference to it here: http://www.dog.com/breed/Standard-Poodle.asp
It says "Victorian merchants often had advertisements cut into the coat of a Poodle and hired someone to walk around with the dog. Sort of a living billboard."
Unfortunately there aren't any pictures.
