Hypo-allergenic Dogs, to be or not to be

Yesterday, while we were all listening intently to the press conference presented by President-Elect Obama, the subject of a new dog in the White House came up. We learned that Mr. President-Elect and family are looking for a hypo-allergenic dog. He also mentioned they would like to get a shelter dog but seemed unsure if they could find such a special dog at a shelter.

I have to put in a plug here for the many animal shelters around the country who are getting overloaded with cats and dogs. There is no class action the prevents the finest breeds from seeking shelter due to home foreclosures, loss of jobs for their people which leads to no dog food today, and just plain silly people who were well-meaning when they purchased the pup. So, check the shelter first.

But let’s get back to the subject of hypo-allergenic dogs. What? I never heard of such a thing. Is there such an animal? Some say: The answer is an emphatic no!…and some say probably not but here is a list of wise choices.

Check it out. What do YOU think? As for me, I am going to take a nap and dream about what it would be like for one of my fellow animals to go from a shelter to the White House! z-z-z-z-z-z
