According to Susan Smith of the Franklin County Dog Shelter, black dogs are less adoptable. Ms. Smith says, "If you have two similar dogs - one black, one light colored side-by-side with similar temperaments, both well behaved, both house broken and friendly, the light-colored dog will be adopted before the black dog".
It is known that dark hair is a dominant trait. There are more brunettes than any other hair color. Maybe, there are just more black dogs?
Mine sure is cute............
We have heard this same comment at a local animal shelter. It is a wonder why when they are so cute and lovable no matter what their color.
ReplyDeleteHi Casper,
ReplyDeleteYES! I agree with you 100%!
OK, it's time to stop this discrimination for black dogs. When women are talking, and make the comment "you know how men are", I kindly explain to them that all med are alike as all women are street-walkers. Black dogs are just as pretty as other colors. Just ask me, I'll tell you - we own one. He's well mannered, too. Just like the one in Marley and Me. But thanks to the collar from this company, and some training, we have not only a pretty dog, but an obedient one.
