We always have black dogs and older ones too, I don't really know why. Maybe my heart instinctively likes the 'underdog' as every time I have a dog over 6 that is jet black, well maybe a few tan bits too.

Having a pet is like being married (with far more benefits) you're in it through the good times and the bad, when they are young and bouncy and when they are old and need TLC.<br /><br />Never knew that black dogs were harder to rehome. Never too old to learn something new!<br /><br />xxDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14933494199087059715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878260668698530448.post-89873546393563147622015-11-25T14:48:12.448+01:002015-11-25T14:48:12.448+01:00Such a lovely poem!

She always looked really smart with her glossy black coat, though how she maintained it was a mystery as she'd eat anything and everything the second your back was turned! :) Jessica Powellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17600892373826080305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878260668698530448.post-88835679472585129262015-11-25T02:09:18.660+01:002015-11-25T02:09:18.660+01:00oh you have me in tears, my darling Holly is black...oh you have me in tears, my darling Holly is black with some white, her siblings were white, she was also the runt. They were all born 'accidentally' on a farm because the owner wasn't careful. They were unwanted. When I heard of these unwanted pups I was first to put my hand up and the owner was surprised by my choice, I want the runt I said, I want the black one. I then helped find the perfect homes for the fluffy white ones. Holly who linked up this week has been the best dog we can ask for, next week she will be a year old. To me she is the cutest in the world. We have also rescued 3 cats, one abandoned at the vet and 2 others rom a shelter. They are our family. My sister adopted a black lab, he is 6 an just adorable.

Bess and Perdie are black, my sister's dog is black and my father's dog was black. (He died just last Friday and we are all still missing him very much. When I last saw him 2 years ago I resigned myself that it was the last time but he lasted so long and I was beginning to hope I would see him again - I missed giving him one last pet by 16 days). I love our black dogs far more than any carpet!Ersatz Expathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03715056719284523304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878260668698530448.post-1951945625069851172015-11-24T16:50:25.307+01:002015-11-24T16:50:25.307+01:00Surprised to hear that about black dogs being hard...Surprised to hear that about black dogs being harder to home - I think I prefer black labs to the lighter sort.
