Please Jesus, not a friggin poodle. As long as it aint some sissy dog, I dont care if its bald, as long as it dont look like something Britney spears or Paris Hilton would be spied with. This is America, not France.
I kinda like Standard Poodles, actually, as long as they aren't trimmed all poofy-like.
Here's a picture of some Peruvian Hairless puppies:I voted "not sure" as I don't know anything about the breed's temperament, especially how good they are with children. The breed I do know is greyhounds, and IMO that would be a good choice. They produce minimal dander and tend to have a very easygoing, affectionate temperament.One caveat is that greyhound puppies can be maddeningly hyper. They do outgrow that by the time they're three years old or so but in the meantime they need lots of exercise or they can be destructive. But the Obamas might have the staff and facilities to cope with that -- after all, Carolyn Kennedy had a pony.BTW, greyhound puppies go through a funny-looking stage where they look like anteaters.
The White House needs a cat. I agree with Jess. Leave the dog for the cat.
