Obama asked. "It sounds like a girly dog." <BR/>His wife reminded Obama, "We're girls.

Although to be honest, I can't imagine them becoming even more popular than they already are. If we had good numbers, I'd be willing to bet that they were one of the top five most popular breeds right now. Endorsing them for the more stable, responsible homes is one of our only antidotes to the horrendous damage that's being done by irresponsible homes.<BR/><BR/>We wouldn't give Bush a pit bull to save our life, but Obama does have a good sense of personal responsibility. Yep -- he can have Bob, if someone doesn't grab him first. <BR/><BR/>He might be a pit bull, but above and beyond his breed, he's a damn nice DOG -- and every family deserves that, no matter what their address is!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05881171300084907158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009181.post-17748631429681876942008-11-11T11:54:00.000-08:002008-11-11T11:54:00.000-08:00I love the idea; I love Bob! However, and it's a ...I love the idea; I love Bob! However, and it's a big HOWEVER,I think the Obamas should be allowed to choose their own dog. It is such a personal decision and this is their first dog. We all know there is some type of chemistry that goes on when you choose a dog to take home. I'm happy enough to know that they are choosing to adopt one. So, while there is nothing wrong with some gentle suggesting a pitbull to them for all the breed's good qualities,I think we bully fans have to contain our enthusiasm just a little bit and not pressure the first family into getting a dog that might not suit their personal taste/life style. But boy-oh-boy, if they ever did choose a bully for the White House what a great day it would be for promoting our dogs as great family dogs, which they absolutely are! (One caveat --one of my friends has long been involved in Scottie rescue and saw the breed rise in popularity when one came to live at the White House. Scotties can be tough little dogs to manage and not a breed for everyone. Would hate to see even more bullies end up homeless as a result of them becoming the "breed du jour." People can be so impulsive, not to mention selfish and downright cruel.
