Screw the Cabinet, let's hear about the First Canine

According to these sources, it will be a "shelter dog."  

If true, good for them.  I just hope they don't go with the ACK-recommended poodle.  I can't see the Obamas as poodle-lovers.

Not long ago I saw a picture of the product of an unlikely liaison between a cholocate labrador and a poodle. Although the logistics of the union are nearly unimaginable, I have to admit that the results are really cute.

So I would recommend a dog like that.

I hope they consider a Welsh Corgi mix. We have such a mix at my house, adopted from a shelter (after some heartless dipshit took him home and then actually gave him back!) whom we have been quite in love with. He's part Cardigan Corgi and part...something else, (the lady who does his toes thinks his other half is Basset Hound) and is consequently super-cute. Very sweet natured. He also doesn't shed very much, so such a mix would probably meet the Obamas' "no shed" requirement (Malia has allergies).
