First Dog?

[karohemd]

Other than choosing his staff, Obama is apparently also looking for a pet.

From the article:

"Can you imagine the dog jumping on Putin, or lifting his leg and peeing on the curtains, or nipping at Gordon Brown?" she says.
"We don't want that to happen, so the dog has to be very well mannered.

Yes, yes we do, especially the last bit. ;oÞ

Yes, yes we do, especially the last bit.

Personally I'd rather it nipped at the curtains and peed on Gordon Brown.

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

Yes, that would be even better. :o)

How about Skippy as a name?

They should get a dog and train it to hump the leg of any and all visiting dignitaries and steal all their biscuits and they should name it "Metaphor"!

Hehehehe!

he mustn't be afraid of people with beards and turbans and so on because he is going to meet a lot of foreign dignitaries.

WUT!

I found that a little odd, too.

Better not get this one, for example.

Ouch!

That plot would so not work if it was set in the UK, the police would just shoot it the first time it attacked anybody and they'd never even find out it was a racist dog.

I hate to think what would happen if it jumped on Putin, with his finely-honed killing reflexes...

Obama's bodyguards would jump Putin. "You killed the President's dawg, dawg!" - Bang!

My personal hope is that he gets the puppy from a no-kill animal shelter. He's already got a lot of respect in my eyes, but this would just be another example of how cool he can be :)

and a mutt like him. ;o) (his own words from today)

[kyrthira.livejournal.com]

I know. He manages to point it out without making it sound like 'OMFG GUYZ IM BLACK DID U NOTICE?!? LOL'

I'm glad they're trying their best to reconcile allergies with wanting a shelter dog. I'll understand if they can't find one that his daughter's not allergic to, but I have to give them mad props for even considering the idea.
