Hi! when i adopted tommy, it was very sudden, we had
to prepare ourselves by reading books and questining
the vet.at that time, i used to wonder and tell my sis
that may be if tommy was black i wouldnt have adopted
him, cant say?! after a year, blacky came into our
society and we had sympathy for him, tried to get him
adopted but in vain, one guy wanted a black dog, a
complete black dog, but blacky has a white line across
chest.finally we adopted him, he is a gem of a dog,
never ever messed in the house from day one, very
obedient and possessive of me, likes to be patted and
massaged, unlike tommy , true pariah as he is,
independent by nature, doesnt feel need to be patted
all the time!!
blacky’s color definetely has nothing to do with his
nature, very docile,loving dog, will hardly bark,
‘rowl’once in blue moon!!very sensitive to my mood
swings and will try to comfort me in my bad moods!
dont go by the color of the dog, look at his
nature!bye, regards, manik.

It’s tough to change people’s perceptions. In the meantime, innocent animals lose their lives because of our screwed up systems. By this of course I don’t mean the rescue systems, but the way some of us lead our lives. For some of us, everything is dispensable once we have no use for it. That includes animals that have lost their cuteness factor.
That way of thinking is simply unacceptable.

Thank you for commenting. I know you have written about this before. What you’ve said is very true. I only hope that some people discriminate unknowingly, and if any of them come across this write up, or ones like this, they may have a change of heart.
