Happy National Black Dog Day!
The 1st October every year, is a day set aside to celebrate black dogs. It was originally created to raise awareness of how they were often passed over in rescue shelters and to break the historic stigma surrounding their colour.
However, we know black dogs are just as loving and loyal as any other colour. In fact they have great character and unique personalities. They are very special!
Black pug owners will know that!
Here, we Celebrate a small sample of YOUR black dogs & pugs, who you’ve shared with us on our Facebook Page Post for National Black Dog Day! 😍🐾

Plus, here’s a pretty impressive grumble, of Lindsey’s. She has a total of 7 pugs, 6 of which are black and of those, 5 are adoptees from the PWDRA!
We celebrate them whether they are with us now, or in our memories from across the Rainbow Bridge. Here are a few who were also lovingly posted in remembrance, by their adoring parents:
We also commemorate our dearly beloved pugs in our In Memoriam section, if you would like to do this, please see:
