National Black Dog Day


I am allowing Mama to BORROW my blog today. We both KNOW my blog is Wed-Sunday only. 
BUTT it seems Mama was so caught up in photos she forgot Daddy's birthday was on the same day as National Dog Day... 
Angel Big boy is here to say,
He was Big, He was Black, he was Beautiful and smart,
He was firmly embedded in my Mama's heart!
 

Adopt Black Dogs and don't forget to adopt Black Cats...Black Dogs come in all sizes and shapes and breeds... 



We found this chart of names for black dogs on Pethelpful   We gave you the names, go adopt a Black dog.  I heard Daddy say to Mommy this week, if we were to change Beau's name, it should be BOSS, because Beau is the BOSS in this house... Beau Da Boss, signing off

The entire story of Beau was so sad, yet he had more than a lifetime of love with you, and he knew it.

Well Beau, we all already knew you were the Boss!
Toodle-oo!

PS Gail's friend Marse's dog is called DB. And yes, that does stand for Da Boss. And he is.

Big Boy was a sweet dog. Beau the Boss, I love that!

Aww, sweet Big Boy. He was a perfect representative for National Black Dog Day. Duke is on that list of names but he was white not black.

You could shorten your name to B.B...

What a handsome boy! I am mostly black with some white, if that counts. And we of course have an all-black kitty!

Woofs,
Ollie

BIG was so special, truly "one of a kind", still miss that boy! (No reflection on the
wonderfulness of Beau ...)

Our life and days with Dougie Dog was an amazing time, though technically a Chocolate Lab his fur was so very dark, one would have thought him to be a "black lab" ... truly a
beautiful soul, heart and spirit.

YES: black, the color of love.

Beau da Boss. Haha I like it. I bet you do too. I've had black cats in the past and black dogs too and never knew that people regard them as less attractive. Our black cat was the MOST beautiful, and he black cat that lived next door (name - Arnold) when I was at Uni was beautiful and smart.

We celebrate our black dog, Millie every day! She is tough even though her name is very sweet.

Sandee said...

Big Boy was most handsome. Our last pup was black. We loved her so.

Have a woof woof day and week. Scritches to Beau. ♥

We also celebrate Black Dog Day everyday with Rosy and can't stand that animal adoptions are biased against black dogs!

Mevely317 said...

Oh, the prejudice against black animals is so unfair!

I love that moniker, Boss Beau!
Seeing that wonderful image of Big Boy gives me all the feels. How he found his way into our hearts! Never to be forgotten!
