Vote Here: President Obama and Family Need a First Dog
Regardless of your politics, we will soon have a new first family. Honestly, I’m excited about watching children growing up in the White House again. The Obama’s seem like a loving, close family, and it will be interesting getting to know them as they become the daily news focus in the coming months.
True story. This morning I was thinking about and praying for our new president-elect and the changes about to occur in his young family’s life. The thought occurred to me that the new president and first lady should help their girls acclimate to their new home by gifting them with a new puppy.
I did a quick online search to make sure the Obama family does not already have a family pet. According to published reports, President-elect Obama has promised his daughter Malia a puppy. The dilemma is whether to get her a pedigree to help with her allergies or support the animal shelter and get a mutt.
If you had to pick a first dog, which breed would you select? Could you see the Obama family with a Pembroke Welsh corgi or a West Highland white terrier? Or, are they a “pick the dog who needs the most love from the animal shelter” type of family? What do you think?
