Woof in advertising: Dogs in black and white
Does this, or something close to it, ever happen to you at home: Your white dog squeezes under the sofa, and then comes out a black dog?
Fortunately for me, Ace, being 130 pounds isn’t about to go under the sofa, though sometimes during thunderstorms he seems to think about it.
There’s some dispute on YouTube over the breeds of the two dogs used in this ad for Black & Decker’s pivoting floor vacuum, but one commenter insists they are a white Havanese and a black corded Havanese — and that the black one won best of breed at Westminster twice (2007 & 2010).

Very cute, this looks like something like magic.
One of my Shih Tzu boys has about 70% snow white mixed in with several shades of blonde in him. So, when he comes out from under our coach, the white turns to gray while the blonde to brown. I guess that doesn’t speak very well for my housekeeping.
