Read a heartfelt story, The Black Dog From Whitedog.
It’s actually not a problem with black dogs but with the people who discriminate against them. Black dogs are usually the last to get adopted and it’s not for fair reasons.
Old superstitions play a part. Some believe black dogs are more aggressive. Some say dimly lit shelters are to blame.
Whatever the reason, when you adopt one of our black dogs, you will automatically become a member of The WHS Black Dog Club! When you show your membership card, you will receive 10% off everything* in The WHS Gift Shop, with no expiry.
Go and pick out something bright for your new black dog!
After all, black goes with everything!
*With the exception of food, litter, and sales items.
Any Black dogs with a 75% or mostly black coat can be a member of The WHS Black Dog Club! If you feel that you have a black dog who deserves to be a member of The WHS Black Dog Club, you are more than welcome to join!
If you already have a black dog, don't panic! Attend one of our Black Dog Club Meet and Greets with your black dog or stop by The WHS with your dog (or with a photo of you with your dog), sign up and you will receive a membership card and a member number. You will receive 10% off* at The WHS gift shop when you show your Black Dog Club membership card!
