That is nice, but i would think that he would want that emotional bond with the pup while it grows up. Oh well, what a sweet face!:love: so kissable thanks for showing that i hadent herd yet!
The puppy will only be gone for 6 weeks of training. That will put him and VP-Elect Biden in the White House around the same time, if I read that right.
(I could have understood wrong...)
Oh yes, a shepherd, one of the worse breeds to be around when you have allergies in my experience. I hope Obama's girl doesn't have any problems having this pup near or it'll have to stay away from the white house. I wish he'd have adopted an adult from the breeder. He clearly doesn't have time for training and caring for a puppy and Obama already promised his girls a puppy. Wouldn't it be great if one of them would have showed the country how nice it is to adopt an adult.
This is for VICE-PRESIDENT Biden. Far as I know the Obamas have not yet chosen theirs.Quote:

Nice of him to go to a breeder instead of a pound or shelter for a puppy as well. I really think that if he adopted, it would send a really nice message....and like you mentioned he is going to be busy. He probably won't even be the one raising or caring for the dog. But after all he is the Vice President, so that will make it all okay. :mad:Quote:

And from what I heard, Obama wants to adopt a shelter dog.
The Vice President does NOT live in the White House, so there is no reason to believe the Obama girls will be in much contact with the pup at all.
What a winner....you'd think the man this special cop would know not to buy a puppy at SIX WEEKS old...
Yea i bet that breeder was real responsible
I don't think the pup was removed from its parents at six weeks, he just bought it on reserve. I'm also pretty sure its not going to start training at this age, so it won't be ready come January when he's the new vice president. It'll probably be a few months old when this 6-week training begins and he'll get it when its done with all of that.
Karen, I guess you're right, it'll be kept at a different place. I was just thinking if he had the dog with him a lot and if it did happen to come to the white house it might cause allergy trouble. No matter.
I'm wasn't being angry when I said that he should have got an adult. I was just saying it would be nice for the country to see that, especially given that he's going to be extra busy. He could have even gotten an adult from a breeder instead of a shelter and it would have been nice.
Damned if you do - damned if you don't!!! It seems you just can't please everybody! :rolleyes:
I didn't know that Biden loves GSDs. They are a fantastic breed & make
great companions.:love: I understand that he personally will not do all
the pup's training, but that's to be expected because of Biden's job.
The pup he chose is adorable.:)
I completely understand and I agree with you.Quote:
