Will A Terrier Be The Next White House dog? |
|
It’s not often that a dog is in the headlines of all major newspapers in the country. Of course, this particular dog is still an unknown!
What kind of dog do you think will be the next White House dog?
Terriers Abound!
Terriers, in all their various forms, have been some of the most popular dogs to occupy the White House. Yep, we were surprised as well.
Take a look at this list!
George W. Bush - Barney and Miss Beazley, Scottish Terriers
Nixon - Pasha, Yorkshire Terrier
JF Kennedy - Charlie (who was Asta’s cousin), Welsh Terrier
Eisenhower - Caacie and Telek, Scottish terriers
FDR - Fala and Maggie, Scottish Terriers
Hoover - Ben Ben and Sonnie, Fox Terriers
Coolidge - Paul Pry, Airedale Terrier, Peter Pan, a terrier
Harding - Laddie, Airedale Terrier
Kermit Roosevelt (Theodore’s son) - Black Jack, Manchester Terrier
Theodore Roosevelt - Pete, a (Pit)Bull Terrier, Skip, mongrel Terrier
Rutherford B. Hayes - Dot, a terrier
Buchanan - Punch, Toy Terrier
Depending on your age, it’s either Barney or Fala as the most well known terrier in the White House.
Fala, the Scottish Terrier, was given to FDR in 1940 and traveled with him everywhere - in cars, trains and boats. During FDR’s fireside chats, people vividly remember the announcer saying that Fala was beside the President. He was so popular that a secretary was appointed to answer the enormous amount of mail sent to him.
Barney had several claims to fame - among them "Barney Cam" and his own White House website pages, his introduction to Miss Beazley, and the reporter who got himself bitten!
