5) Black goes with everything so your Black dog will always be coordinated with all of your outfits and your furniture! 4) A Black dog always looks presentable on any formal occasion!
3) Black is a combination of every color in the spectrum, so you will actually have a dog who is blue, green, red, etc.!

And, the # 1 reason to adopt a Black dog: A Black dog is just as loyal, loving, and trustworthy as a White, Brown, or Red dog, but these guys are the most often overlooked. Black dogs need homes too.
Many people do not realize that Black dogs, especially large ones, are the hardest dogs to adopt out. Generally, a deaf, blind, and old small white or brown dog will be easier to adopt out than a perfectly healthy Black Lab. So when you choose to bring another dog into your family, please don't forget the dogs that are so used to being forgotten.
Adoptable Pets
If you are interested in one of our rescues that are up for adoption, please contact us through email or phone to set up a meet and greet. We are not a shelter so if you drop by our facility you are unlikely to meet the dog or cat of your choice as most of the animals we rescue are in foster care where they can receive one on one attention, lots of extra love, care, and feeding, and adjust to their new and improved lives.
Many thanks to our wonderful foster families for the candid home photos of their foster fur babies and their wonderful insights into the personalities of the dogs and cats they so lovingly care for while they're waiting to find their forever homes!
Also, a big thank you to Kim Beer for donating her amazing photography skills to Chain of Hope! If you would like to see more of Kim's work you can check her out on her website at KimBeerPhotography.com
