Blog The Dogs

The election is over, finally.  We have a new family moving into the White House and a promise was made to his daughters.  That promise was when the campaign was over the family would purchase a puppy.  So the new media frenzy is now involved around the question “what breed of dog should go to the White House?”

The most popular breed in the White House so far has been the Scottish Terrier  But check out this site for a list of all of the White House inhabitants- http://www.presidentialpetmuseum.com/whitehousepets-1.htm

I would like to encourage you to express your opinion on this matter.  Here is the only requirement stated so far, one of the Obama girls has allergies.  To the right of this post is a response form.  Fill it out and voice your breed choice.   I will have this up til Nov. 16 and then post the results.

I hope everyone has a great day with your dog.  A friend sent me this video clip of a local group of Bulldogs celebrating Halloween-

Just wanted to post saying that i’ve disabled the default ‘no follow’ setting and changed it to ‘do follow’ for all comments. For those of you that don’t know, Wordpress (along with most other blogs) do not follow links found in comments (hence ‘no follow’). I have disabled that so now when you comment on one of my posts, you will get credit for the link. When my site becomes more popular and I get some PR on some of my posts, a comment on that page will help your own pagerank.

If you have your own blog and haven’t downloaded the Do Follow Wordpress plugin, do so to help out all the webmasters out there.

This is my dog Gus. He’s a 11 year old Lab, German Shepherd cross. This is the first dog that i’ve owned, and I really don’t know how I could ever own another dog after Gus….maybe cloning will be more mainstream by then! Anyway, you can see here that Gus is putting on a sap show for the camera!
