🖤🐾 NATIONAL BLACK DOG DAY🐾🖤
Today is National Black Dog Day, a day created to shine a light on something shelters and rescues know all too well: Black Dog Syndrome.
Black dogs are often overlooked in shelters. They can be harder to photograph, their faces may not stand out as quickly while someone scrolls through adoption photos, and for reasons we’ll never understand, they can simply get passed by.
They wait.
And sometimes, they wait for a very, very long time.
We have multiple black dogs who need homes.
Let' start with Luna! Luna is 11 months old, german shephard mix and loves dogs and people.
Sugar Bean, shes a sweet girl, who loves a cuddle and thinks shes a 10lb lap dog. Good with calmer dogs and older kids.
Next is 10 month old Pinnochio. He loves, loves dogs, great with people, housetrained and all sorts of perfection, yet, he still waits.
Spider is a sweet and gentle, perfect gentleman. 4 years old, over all the annoying puppy stuff and just wants to be cuddling with you. Good with dogs, cats and dont see any issues with kids.
Our newest gorgeous black dog is Sadie. 6 months old, German Shephard mix. All sorts of puppy energy, loves dogs and people.
So on National Black Dog Day, we’re asking you to SEE our dogs. Share them, talk about them, tell people about black dog syndrome and highlight the need to get these dogs into forever homes, they all deserve it.
🖤Luna, Sugar Bean, Pinnochio and Sadie, we see you and will do everything to find your families🖤
