They have a kid with allergies after all. Porties have relatively long hair yes but unlike most breeds, they lack the double coat which is the primary shed coat which aggravates allergies. That's why they are considered hypoallergenic.<br />In thinking about your point if the Obamas YesBiscuit!https://www.blogger.com/profile/13827466504671715047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3536020437295001618.post-11334564436922858642009-04-15T13:21:00.000-04:002009-04-15T13:21:00.000-04:00*The War ON Iraq

I agree with that completely. However, if the Obamas had gotten an outright "mutt", perhaps more people WOULD be going to shelters to find similar dogs. In the meantime, it would have raised awareness about shelter animals if the Obamas had actually visited one. <br /><br />And yes, I do know one of the girls has allergies.

If had gone out and gotten, say, a "hypoallergenic" Labradoodle from a shelter, would that really create more demand for shelter dogs? I can see it creating more demand for Labradoodles, but shelter dogs?
