And why not, I say.
Black dogs are freaking adorable and deserve just as much love as their white, brown, and grey compatriots.
Many animal shelter workers claim — largely from anecdotal, personal experience — that black dogs are more likely to show up in shelters and less likely to be adopted, but studies conducted by the ASPCA cast some serious doubt on this claim.
Either way, there are many, many reasons to celebrate black dogs.
Personally, I can think of 11.
