This is why I can't get a yellow...my whole life (wardrobe, furniture, car interior, rugs) for the past 20 years has been geared toward black fur!
I adore my black little lad. I don't have anything to compare him to but I know I wouldn't swap him for anything. And his coat is always super glossy and shiny which I think is most noticeable on black labs
We changed everything when we got Poppy - new light-coloured curtains, earth-tone furnishings, and a whole new wardrobe of stone-sand-oat-earthy colours! And now it is distinctly possible that the new pup may be black...
I have a friend who takes her dogs fur in an envelope went she buys sofas and carpets. He's a brindle boxer
