That’s enough pet pandering to Obama
Whenever President-Elect Obama promised his daughters they could have a puppy, the pet world went crazy.
“Will it be a purebread? A mutt? A shelter dog? A big dog, small dog, boy dog, girl dog, allergy-free dog, three-legged dog, left-handed dog, spotted dog, car-driving dog? What kind of DOG?!? TELL US, OBAMA FAMILY!”
Obama is tight-lipped. But all this hubbub is exhausting. Everyone is offering advice to the Obamas - even us experts here at Pet Show! And we had a story in the paper, too. But now even the Peruvians are getting in on the action. Yes, the people of Peru are telling the Obamas what kind of dog to adopt.
While all dogs are special, this dogs are a little wacky looking. But their hair-free features would be a benefit to Obama’s older daughter, who’s allergic to dogs.
All I’ve got to say is enough. I was so grateful when the election finally ended, and now this madness has gone into full swing. Just tell me when it’s all over, please.
