Did the Obama's Pick a Bichon?

[Medusa]

I haven't heard anything about them getting a dog yet. I know he said they were hoping to find a "hypoallergenic" dog at a shelter. I know that the country of Peru has offered the Obama Family a Peruvian Hairless as a gift, but I haven't heard if they have accepted.

Yes, I just heard this on the news, too, and the doctor being interviewed said that there is no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog; cat, yes, dog, no. They all should be tested first to see if any of them actually are allergic to dogs.

Obama said he wanted a mutt " just like me"...so i doubt it
