    Beautiful way to raise awareness. Emmylou Harris has a song specifically about this unfortunate bias - Big Black Dog.

    I was diagnosed at age 26 with an 8 cm breast cancer tumor in my left breast. I had no family history of cancer & had been told I was "too young" for breast cancer and not given a mammogram for several months due to this. I rescue animals & that is what I was busy doing when I got hit with this diagnosis. The month before I was diagnosed I adopted Shy-Shy, a black/brown mutt who was on death row at a gassing shelter in Georgia. She was not even on the list to be saved, due to her color.

    I just heard about this on the Dog Whisperer. It is sad, but I have to admit I understand why this problem exists b/c black dogs do look much scarier than other dogs. A fluffy white or yellow dog has a gentle look but the same fluffy black dog looks a bit scary. Anyway I hope ppl start adopting the black dogs. I have a border collie that`s more black than white but got him for a guard dog to look scary. If ppl want protected they should get black dogs. 100% they scare ppl even if they`re cowards

    I have a BBD and I love him more than life itself. I picked a black dog because I like the color. I don't understand most people : (

    I adopted a female Black Lab from Death Row at Greenville County Animal Shelter. My ole Black Lab Mix was found as a stray puppy in the woods. I wouldn't trade them for all the money in the world.

    Thank you for sharing this video. It's a good way to help educate people that black dogs are beautiful both inside and out. They reminded me of my own babies.

    We saw 2 black mutts on the side of the road not even 4 mo. old yet. Covered in fleas and ticks and skinny. They are my precious babies and I would let nothing touch them.. :) (The girl looks identical to the dog at 0:23)
