A dog for the Obamas - but what kind?

[mojosmom]

Win or lose, the Obamas are getting a dog after the election. The AKC has come up with a list of purebreds, suggesting the Obamas buy one from a breeder or pet store. But some of us think that the Obamas should visit a shelter, and adopt a homeless dog. (Okay, some of us think it should be a cat, but oh well.) If you think so, too, please sign the petition sponsored by the Best Friends Network here.

While I'm not ordinarily a fan of Internet petitions, two shelter kitties are looking at me with big eyes and suggesting that if I ever want any more snuggles, I'd better not only sign the thing but pass it on. So I am. ;-)

Excellent Idea!

Thanks for posting the petition. I had planned to but since you reach so many more people, now I don't have to.

It would be so great to have a first mutt!
