Black is Beautiful

While nibbling on some Pumpkin Spice Bones and enjoying the fresh breeze coming through the open living room window, it occured to me that it would be lovely to have a coffee table book to browse through. Yup, that would surely make the moment all the more wonderful.

And so it is that my Julie-people and I have stumbled across
Black is Beautiful which is dedicated to the countless black beauty rescued mutts, such as myself. For each purchase of this book, the SPCA/Humane Society of Prince George's County, Maryland receives a $20 donation.

Black dogs are the most difficult for shelters to adopt out. For some silly reason, people tend to see us black beauties as being more aggressive, scarier, less of a family dog. How silly! I never understand why people tend to shy away from me when I'm walking my people down the sidewalk. They see "bad black dog with menacing white teeth" - bad? menacing? Look at this beautiful smile! My whole black body is wagging with excitement at the prospect of some lovin'.

Help us change this unfavorable public image of black dogs. We need families too! Buy this book. Share the love of dog.

Oh - and buy some Pumpkin Spice Bones - they go great with this book. Yum!
