(hypoallergenic dogs) Dog days, indeed - Boston Globe

Have you noticed that while banks, brokers, and the Big Three are on their knees begging, dogs are living larger than ever? The day after the country elected its first African-American president, the big news, reported breathlessly by serious journalists, was Barack Obama’s desire to get a hypoallergenic dog for his daughters. Then there was Ted Kennedy, who, recovering from brain cancer, made his triumphant return to the Senate’s hallowed halls flanked by Sunny and Splash, those waggy-tongued Portuguese water dogs of his. While many Major League teams, including the Tigers, Cardinals, Giants, Rockies, Marlins, and White Sox, have designated “dog days” when the public can bring pups to the park, Fenway isn’t so friendly to four-legged fans. It doesn’t matter one lick to MFA director Malcolm Rogers that dogs figure prominently in paintings from the Renaissance to the present; these Old Masters are off limits. A few summers ago, the museum threw a party to celebrate the works of animal-loving artists Jasper Johns and Jeff Koons, and dogs were invited to attend.

Mutts R Us! - Reading Little India- hypoallergenic dogs

In their search for dogs, and the need to avoid mutts like the President-Elect, everyone seems to have lost sight of his eloquence. If you remember Warren Beatty’s brilliant film, Bulworth (very prescient about the current political scene and election), you may recall the exasperation of the senator as he struggles over the issue of race in this country. We have a whole generation of mutts in Anglo Indians, who themselves faced issues about their identity and assimilation, because we did not know what to do with such obvious mutts. We know now that all domestic dogs are intentional mutts, descending from the wolf and his various mates.
