no one wants to take a chance on black little missy because of the color of her coat

Some cultures believe that a dog or cat with a darker, black coat, is a superstitious omen that must be avoided at all costs. In America, and western cultures, in particular, there is a belief that is widely held that if a black cat crosses you, seven years of bad luck ensues, which of course couldn’t be further from the truth.



I am a spayed female black Labrador Retriever mix.
The shelter staff think I am about 5 months old and I weigh 19 pounds.

For one dog named Missy, her new reality is caged in with her, at the high kill, Miami-Dade Animal Services. The sweet pup, who always makes sure to greet shelter patrons with a cheerful upbeat attitude, is routinely passed up for adoption.

My source at the shelter, who wishes to remain anonymous for the story says that the 5 months old pup, is more than likely being overlooked because of the color of her coat, and I tend to agree wholeheartedly.





Speak up!, if you or someone you know is interested in giving MISSY the second chance she deserves, please contact the Miami-Dade Animal Services Pet Adoption and Protection Center at (305) 8841101 or 311 and reference the shelter ID (A1870456).

Additionally, please share the story on Facebook or Twitter, so we are closer to finding Missy a home. We have done it before, and can certainly do it again.
