Picture It – Twiggles the Dog
Judi and I have heard that black dogs in shelters have a hard time getting adopted in this modern era, partly because they don’t photograph as well. The surplus of poor black rescue dogs is one reason we deliberately chose our tailless schnoodle — schnauzer/poodle mix.
Getting a decent picture is hard, though. I had to Photoshop the poor pooch to get her face to show, lightening it by 50% and then lightening her eyes still more.
PS – Though you can’t tell from the picture, yes, Twiggles does have rear legs!

She’s a real charmer, see why you chose her. Very loving.
She’s a sweetheart all right, one of the better dogs we’ve ever had.
She doesn’t look black in the photo. But she sure looks sweet.
Thanks for sharing.
Oh yes, she’s sweet.
In this photo she looks more gray than black. But clearly a keeper.
Thanks for sharing!
In person, some of that grey is so dark as to look black. As I said, I lightened the pic.
Twiggles is adorable
I won’t tell Effing Feline you said that!
Twiggles is such a cutie! Rescue animals are wonderful.

Whatever she was rescued from didn’t leave her with the canine equivalent of PTSD.
