My puppies may be racist.
The white ones,
Do not sleep with blackie.
But, being the first out.
I'd say it's blackie,
Not sleeping with them.
It's a pack thing.
Author notes
Dogs see in black, white and grey, yet never notice the different shades. You have to be human to base hundreds of years of slavery, murder and hate on something as meaningless as color.
