🖤 BLACK DOGS ARE WAITING FOR THEIR PEOPLE 🖤 Have you ever heard of Black Dog Syndrome?

It’s the term commonly used in animal welfare to describe the idea that black dogs can be overlooked by adopters because of their appearance. Black dogs can be harder to photograph in kennel settings, may not stand out as much among lighter-colored dogs, and can be affected by negative stereotypes surrounding their color. So this week, we’re putting the spotlight on our BLACK DOGS! 🖤🐾 🖤 BLACK DOG ADOPTION SPECIAL 🖤 SEPTEMBER 22–26 For a limited time, black dogs are 50% OFF their adoption fees! And you’re getting so much more than a lower adoption fee. Every dog comes: 🐾 Fully vaccinated with age-appropriate vaccines 🐾 Spayed/neutered 🐾 Microchipped 🐾 Heartworm tested 🐾 On heartworm prevention 🐾 On flea prevention These dogs have already had so much of their care taken care of — now they just need the part we can’t provide inside a shelter: A HOME. ❤️ Don’t scroll past the black dogs. Don’t assume the best match will be the dog with the brightest coat. Stop by. Meet them. Let them show you who they are. You might just fall in love with the dog you almost didn’t notice. 🖤🐶 50% OFF BLACK DOG ADOPTIONS | 9/22–9/26 Offer applies to eligible black dogs available for adoption at HSFC during the promotion.
