    I could be wrong, but I don't believe it will have an excess of people out buying them. They are not a common breed and I don't foresee it having the same effect as a Hollywood movie where a billion kids see a type of dog doing miraculous things and then badgering mom and dad to get them one too. I am sure it may cause some increase in interest but hopefully not 'fill the shelters' type of interest.

    Anyway I think this pup is cute and I enjoyed reading his story here http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30188436/

    I agree. I think the Marley movie is going to have a FAR greater impact than the Obama's dog. Actually, I have already boarded the a new yellow lab puppy named Marley. It's starting already.

    "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
