When a couple of politicians who have never owned a dog before suddenly and publicly announce (or at least Michelle does) that they are going to get a dog, what do YOU think? We saw how awfully well that worked out with the Clintons . . . .

If I had a litter right now, I would not sell the Obamas a pup at any price given what I know.

If they demonstrated that they are not just doing a political publicity stunt but are actually willing to make a 12-15 year commitment to care for a creature that will depend on them for everything, including proper training, then it might be a different story.

If you get a pup from a reputable breeder, you can expect to be closely questioned on how you're going to care for their pup, training, environment, etc. etc. It's really more a question of YOU being interviewed by the breeder, rather than the other way around. (That's how you know you're getting a good dog.)
