The First Dog

It's getting close to that time. A time when spring fever swipes us from our studies and homework only to enjoy the wonderful weather outside. It is also a good time for those who have their thoughts on a new puppy to get one because training will be easier as the weather turns warmer.

That is why an article on MSNBC discuss the matter of the Obama's first dog. When will they get and what kind will they get seems to be the two main questions popping up. As society seeks answers, First lady, Michelle Obama, informs MSN that she is rather surprised about all the talk this topic has received. I am with her on this one. Shouldn't we be a little more focused on things occurring in our struggling economy right now then worry about why the Obama's haven't gotten a dog yet?!

Since this topic seems to be of interest to many, the Obama's have decided on a Portuguese water dog, one that is old enough and a match for the family dynamic. Their reason for choosing this breed is because many others they know that have this type of dog have been very pleased by it. April seems to be the mark that the Obama's are looking at for purchasing a new pup. Below is what the Obama's new dog may look like...

Talk of getting a new addition to the Obama household from the President's daughters has seemed to decrease, Michelle Obama said. However it seems the nation has picked up where they let off. Instead of discussing when they will get a new dog, Sasha and Malia have been thinking of names to call him or her. Frank and Moose have been the popular votes from the girls, however, if mom has anything to say about it, which I'm sure she does, these names will fall just short of what the new pup is to be called.
