Try finding a Black Lab outside on a moonless night.
They are already tough enough to “photograph” in the sunshine on a sunny day.
Total photon traps.
Been there twice, and now I also have a brindle Lab/Pit mix that blends in perfectly to the couch, or in the dark.

The first time I heard of that was when I adopted a beautiful, black flat-coat retriever from a rescue service (where he’d been for about 6 months) at their outdoor “fair”. I asked why they’d had him so long, and they said he was so dark they couldn’t get a decent photo of him for their web site (said it always came out a black blob) so nobody asked about him. That was my good luck - the best dog I ever had (got him at 2, had him for 10 years).
Younger kid’s black lab turns 2 years old in about a week and he’s super hard to get a good photo of, especially indoors. On a side note, we refer to him as the BDITHOD*.
*Best dog in the history of dogs
Got that right; about 3 years ago I told my wife “NO MORE BLACK DOGS”.
She was down south about a year ago and called me and said she was given a BLACK & TAN German Shepard puppy that was found wandering in an industrial area.
I worry about my boys and girls when they go out after dark, it’s the same time the bears and mountain lions are out there.
Damn dog is more BLACK than tan, can’t see her for spit.
