In support of an Obama Chihuahua

OK, so who didn’t get the memo?

No girly dogs in the White House, he said. No Chihuahuas, no Yorkies, no Pomeranians. No lap dogs of any kind. President-elect Barack Obama told Barbara Walters – on national TV, no less – he wants a big, burly, rambunctious dog lumbering around the lawn on Pennsylvania Avenue.

Some people just don’t listen. Here comes Esther J. Cepeda blogging on The HuffingtonPost that the only way we’ll get a Mexican in the White House is if the incoming First Family adopts a Chihuahua.

It’s payback for the Latino vote, Cepeda says. Hmm, maybe she’s got a point.

Hi,

Wanted to let all dog and cat owners know of a site I found last month called, http://www.frescopet.com . This site sells fragrant tags that are placed onto the exisiting collar, and it provides a nice fragrant effect. I purchased 2 packs of coconut for my chocolate lab Hershey. Now she has a pleasant soft scent . Check out the site. :) ...Anabelle

If they want an even bigger Mexican statement that isn't a toy dog and that is allergy friendly, they should go with the Xoloitzcuintli.

No way Jose. He'd be a laughing stock getting photographed talking one for a walk. They're associated more with Paris Hilton than with stateliness.
