whats the unlucky number and colour for Water Dog

I see for Water Dog 1982 the lucky number is 1 and 6 but when you see the Dog's Chinese astrology it says 1, 6, and 7 are the unlucky numbers, which is very confusing. also, can you mention what are the unlucky colors for Water Dog 1982?
it seems like 2024 is not the right year as it is Dragons year, and not compatible with Dog, what's the best suggestion for 2024?
