There is just something so cool about a black puppy. There are so many dog breeds that come in black: from the slick black lab (like Gwyneth Paltrow's black Labrador Retriever, Holden!) to the gentle giant, a Great Dane, black puppies come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. Even former president of the United States, Mr. Barack Obama, had an adorable black and white Portuguese Water Dog named Bo for him and his family.
Yes, black dogs are quite special, aren't they? So, if you've brought home a new black dog and are looking for the perfect name for your new family member, look no further!
