Why has it taken so long to pick a Presidential Pup? Many cabinet appointments have been made: Secretary of State, Energy, Education, and Climate Czarina.
Even VP elect Biden has picked a German Shepherd pup. How hard can it be?
I want to throw a "bone" in the ring for Presidential Pup.
How About a Boston Terrier? Of course, I have my own Betty, see above as a puppy, so I may be biased. However, I have listed ten reasons why a Boston Terrier should be in the running for the White House puppy.
1. The Boston Terrier is the first American breed recognized by the American Kennel Club.
There is an interesting history here. In 1865, two dogs were bred that are the ancestors of all Boston Terriers. Hooper's Judge, part English bull-dog and part English Terrier, and Gyp, a bull dog type dog. Their puppies were bred with similar dogs and after many years, a breed was formed that was accepted by AKC in 1983. The breed was first rejected when called the American Bull Terrier, but was accepted when called the Boston Terrier
2. Boston Terriers are called the American Gentleman (even the females) because of their tuxedo look and their gentle disposition.
3. They are very smart and alert.
4. They come in many colors.
The most common is black and white, but some dogs have brindle; some are brown (seal); and some are more white than brown or black.
5. There is precedent.
President Harding had a Boston Terrier.
6. They are affectionate, lovable and gentle
They do lick, though; they are loyal and good companions.
7. They are very energetic and love to "fetch."
8. They come in three sizes: small (15 lbs.), medium 20 lbs., large 25 lbs.
9. They don't shed; they don't have fur.
10. They are cute.
So, Obama family, what are you waiting for? Pick a Boston Terrier; go American.
