Wonderful video…nicely done!
So touching… I volunteer at a shelter, and fell in love this a black pitbull named Diamond. She was the sweetest girl in the world.
Sadly, no one adopted her, and after months of being stressed out in the shelter, she became dog aggressive, and found that she was no longer adoptable, so they had to put her to sleep.
My heart just aches when I watched this.

I have three rescue dogs, two of them are black. They all have their own silly goofy, sometimes very energetic personalities!!!!!
That was so sad. I never knew that.
Aww, I have a black lab mixed with chow shes so pretty.. I would NEVER find a better dog then her
and I personally think black dogs are the prettiest dogs EVER!!! <3 Duffy, shes my baby girl. I wouldnt trade her for the world!

Hello, I think you were on Dogcast Radio with Julie Hill? I volunteer in a shelter here in Ireland and asked them about black dogs and they told me they don’t have that problem.
In fact last week a black Lab got a new home but I can see where you have a problem.My favourites are black & white collies but in the shelter I have met many wonderful black dogs.
I wish you the best of Irish luck. DOGS RULE!
This is very sad, to choose a dog because of his color is a superficial thinking. The most important is the innocent soul who wants to live, love and be loved. Black dogs are wonderful dogs, why people think they are different ? This is a sort of racism I think, these wrong ideas are for the primitive inquisition times when they used to burn cats or dogs, because they were black the primitive people thought they were evil, very retarded minds.
i adopted a black dog he was at a shelter got abused and left to die
@schnad i had tears in my eyes when i saw this comment.
I heard this when I adopted my puppy, Skyy. She looks exactly like the puppy at 4:04 except she has bright blue eyes. I was thanked generously by the shelter because they said black dogs have a low adoption rate. This really shocked me cuz they are beautiful dogs too… and my baby gets complimented everywhere she goes on how gorgeous she is. Granted, it was her eyes that caught my attention–but it was the contrast between the blue and black that really got me.
I had little black dog. She was named JJ.She was mix beagle with lab. She went threw both pregnancy of my girls sitting on my stomach. She loved the girls so much. She was so smart. She has been gone for some time. But I still miss her. RIP JJ.
Black dogs are best dogs for protection!
Superficial or not, it is what it is. Shelters need to post videos for Black Dogs so people can see the personality. Why not have a Black Dog Day once a month?
@AZUREGLIDE OK so what’s the difference and can we implement that here?
Worked at a shelter for a while, and it’s dead true. Big black adult dogs are close to impossible to adopt out. That’s why I took one home.
@PatriciaBianco I think you may have a problem specific to your area or country. I have been volunteering at the shelter for 8 months now and there isn’t a problem with black dogs. You could promote them more – get them bandanas that are colourful, if you have a website do short 10 second videos showing their personality and maybe have a dog of the week – a black dog. We’ve had a number of black lab crosses and they do get homes because they are lovely dogs. I would try to promote them more.
@schnad Very sad. I have worked with 2 Pit Bulls and they are the nicest dogs – very human orientated. Dogs do get stressed in shelters but do they really have to be PTS?
I currently foster a Big Beautiful Black Lab with a rescue group in my home state. This poor guy has been looking for his forever home since August of 2010. He’s absolutely the sweetest guy ever, and 100 pounds of pure love. It still confuses me as to why so many black dogs are PTS in shelters, discarded in the countryside, or simply SHOT by farmers and other homeowners because they “look mean”… Nothing could be farther from the truth!
i adopted a black flat coated retriver
