LIMA, Peru (Nov. 11) - Peruvians crazy about their national dog, a bald and often toothless breed popular among Incan kings, have offered to send a hypoallergenic puppy to the Obama family. President-elect Barack Obama has promised daughters Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7, a new pet for the White House. But Malia is allergic to most breeds, he said Friday as speculation swirled about the dog the family would choose. A Pooch for the First Family?Mariana Bazo, Reuters3 photos My, what big ears you have! And that's how this 4-month-old Peruvian Hairless Dog got his name, "Ears." Peruvians crazy about their national dog are offering Ears to President-elect Barack Obama for his daughters Sasha and Malia. "We want to give a male puppy to Obama's daughters, so they get to experience the joys of having a dog but without having any allergies," said Claudia Galvez.

LOL...is that Curly? NyuK, NyuK Nyuk
When I saw that headline on Yahoo’s homepage, I thought it had to be a JOKE! Oh my gosh, President Ears to have a dog named Ears. You can’t make this stuff up! Maybe Michelle can get her own dog and they can name it Beast. Sorry, that was mean, but my gosh, have you seen her?
Thats almost as scary as the real one!(in the link). Are they trying to give the Obama kids nightmares?
Part Curly, part Rosie.
I thought it was Rosie O’Donnell.

Nah it wasn’t mean. I’d suggest a bulldog.
It looks like the female? version of Curly
That is one fug dog.
I’m a dog lover, but, the picture accompanying the article is scary.
I think Obama was laying the groundwork for why they never get a dog .
Has to be hypoallergenic and from a shelter.
Face it.. the man doesn’t like dogs.
The Obamas were married for years before they had kids and never had a pet.
Could it be a Muslim thang ?
Saudi Arabia has banned the public walking of dogs.
Because men use them to flirt.
“Violators found outside with their pets will have their beloved poodles and other furry companions
confiscated by agents of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice,
the official name of the religious police,
tasked with enforcing Saudi Arabia’s strict Islamic code.”
“ The prohibition may be more of an attempt to curb the owning of pets, which conservative
Saudis view as a sign of corrupting Western influence..”
“ In Islamic tradition, dogs are shunned as unclean and dangerous..”
My dogs shun Muslims as unclean and dangerous.
Whatever dog the Obamas choose, I just hope he is as skilled as this one:

It looks like his mother, the jackal.
Here's something that REALLY scares me:
Obama is saying NO DOG now. Hmm... I wonder how he feels about ham?...or has he ever had BACON for breakfast???
He’s saying no to a dog because Obama is a big fan of Dr. Isadore Rosenfeld’s Sunday Housecalls program on Fox. This past Sunday, Dr. Rosenfeld specifically advised against even so-called hypoallergenic dogs for allergic kids.
