    When we rescued Sandy ( german shep/ huskey mix) it was her last day there. It even said on her cage that if nobody was going to adopt her that day she was going to get PTS, and she was about 9 weeks old!!! She was sooo cute, she was alittle brat as a pup and ate everything and chewed everything, she even got into rat poison once! But now she is the best dog I have ever had and I love her to death and im so happy we chose her instead of the little puppies up in the front room! We always have bigger mixed breeds, Labs and hound dogs for adoption.

    Whenever I visit the local shelter there's ALWAYS several labs (all colors) and some other sporting breeds like german shorthair pointers, border collies/mixes, german shepherds/mixes, and bully breeds/mixes. There's always a couple of small breeds (I've seen several purebred beagles and cocker spaniels as well as "designer" breed poodle mixes) and occasionally puppies too. Many of the dogs are purebreds and the vast majority are big dogs. I've seen several senior dogs which makes me so heartsick, I can't imagine having a dog for so many years then just dumping them. I haven't noticed a particularly large amount of black colored dogs, though I've heard statistically that is usually the case.

    This is a sporting/farming area so there's a TON of sporting breed dogs like labs and herding breeds like border collies/aussies. I voted "big black dogs" and I'd say just any large breed dog is the last to be adopted here. If anyone wants to adopt a lab, just come here you'll find any age/size/color you want I guarantee it. I really have not seen many hounds or malamutes/huskies in the local shelters.

    I think big black dogs. They are so common most people want dogs that stand out. Not all people of course.
    As for me I love big black dogs Of course I love all dogs LOL.
