Top Ten Reasons to Adopt a Black Dog
Reason Number Ten: We cannot clash with your furniture or clothing (and some of you actually worry about that).
Reason Number Nine: We cannot clash with any collar you might choose either! Ditto for the bandanas.
Reason Number Eight: Ease of vacuuming! You can quickly spot the areas of most urgent need.
Reason Number Seven: We hide the dirt well (doesn't mean we don't need that bath after a messy play but your guests won't be able to see it so quickly).
Reason Number Six: We make an excellent "backdrop" for a second lighter colored dog (if you choose to have one).
Reason Number Five: Availability!!! We are available now at every shelter or rescue you can imagine, in every age bracket with no long waiting lists or difficult search.
Reason Number Four: No annoying queries of "exactly what kind of dog is that anyhow?" People are content with "big black dog" and don't ask anymore questions.
Reason Number Three: EXCELLENT night walk protection. The "bad guy" won't see us till its too late!
Reason Number Two: Status symbol potential. Black pearls are the most costly you know......
Reason Number One: WE NEED YOU!
