You can call it 'Cuddles.'Oh, you want a dog? Here is a dog for you, straight from the fires of HELL. You can dress it up in a sweater and some lipstick, and it will look exactly like Liz Taylor. This is a Peruvian Hairless dog, ancient pet of the Incas. It is prone to acne and blackheads. Some crazy Peruvian lady wants to give it to you because she hates America. [MSNBC]

And they’ll name the dog ‘Ali Akbar’ just to irritate the wingnuts

Wow. It’ll be the second-largest pair of ears in the White House.

So, harsh! This little guy looks sweet. Picking on Palin is one thing. Picking on a cute little dog is just mean.

from wikipedia:

“The dark-colored dogs get used to direct sunlight and need to be looked after only in spring when sunlight gets stronger. The light-colored dogs (copper) and spotted ones have to be protected always, in summer. They tend to quickly sunburn.”

just like people!

That dog has Shane Battier’s scalp.

Wouldn’t it produce far more heroic looking photo ops if Obama forgets about the pooch and takes up falconeering instead?

El Bombastico November 11, 2008 at 10:14 am

Also from wikipedia: “According to the FCI breed standard, the most important aspect of its appearance is its hairlessness.”

No F’in shit. You don’t say…

Johnny Zhivago November 11, 2008 at 10:15 am

I’d say four years supply of Xertec would be a better investment than that rancid looking mutt.

I ran into the copper variety of this dog once at an Autism Awareness Festival. It was a “helper dog”, though it was so nightmarish, I don’t know what child would want to go anywhere near it– all bulgy eyes, skin like an overstuffed, warty sausage, not to mention enormous testicles. It would haunt my dreams for months to come.

itgetter November 11, 2008 at 10:27 am

GAH!

And yet, a Chinese Crested is uglier.

I think the Obamas should go for a Puli! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puli
Yes, it’s hypoallergenic!

mamandesfilles November 11, 2008 at 10:35 am

I don’t think I can stand 8 years of watching a hairless dog during the winter… That would be pitiful… and a hairless dog wearing a sweater would be worse.

yellowbug November 11, 2008 at 10:37 am

I think it looks like a perfectly nice dog. And one of my very best friends is bald and prone to acne and blackheads… what are you tryin’ to say, huh?

regisgoat November 11, 2008 at 10:38 am

Mr. Hairless Ugly Inca Dog should really wonder if Mrs. Hairless Ugly Inca Dog steps out with the local llamas.

NoWireHangers November 11, 2008 at 10:38 am

It looks like a deer.

Lazy Media November 11, 2008 at 10:38 am

Aren’t poodles hypoallergenic? And aren’t there billions of rescue poodles out there who were abandoned by their douchebag owners? Why do we have to overthink this so much?

Poodles = hyperintelligent elites = game over. Welcome to the White House, Fifi.

NoWireHangers November 11, 2008 at 10:39 am

Or a jackal from the fires of hell.

I think that dog looks like Frank the bunny from Donny Darko.

he’s actually kind of cute, for a lizard.

WadISay November 11, 2008 at 10:41 am

Letting the dog “hug” you is supposed to help with stomach pain and other disorders, according to Peruvian folklore.

Also, it helps your knee achieve orgasm.

wheelie November 11, 2008 at 10:42 am

[re=172959]itgetter[/re]: I think they should get a Portugese Water Dog. We talked about these dogs before in the comments. Wikipedia claims they can herd fish into nets. Pretty cool dogs if that’s true.

[re=172988]wheelie[/re]: What is it with the ‘MOP’ dogs, have any of you ever owned a really hairy dog? They go in the kitchen get a drink of water then they go outside dipping water the whole way then they sniff the dirt looking for a place to pee then they end up with ‘muddy beard’(citation needed). then they try to lick your face and you arent sure for about 5 seconds if you have mud or poo on your face. or they go out and roll in the dirt and come inside and spread that shit all over the house, so you end up with a reverse dustmop. and no the muddy beard isnt like a dirty snchez.

[re=172988]wheelie[/re]: The difficulty in choosing a hypoallergenic dog is that most of them look either scary or prissy. I like the Portuguese Water Dog though. That fish thing is just cool.

obfuscator November 11, 2008 at 11:09 am

One of my friends used to get extremely drunk, then he’d vomit so forcefully that blood vessels would burst in his eyes. I’d see him the morning after a bender with his bloodshot eyes and pathetic hangdog expression. That’s what this photo reminds me of.

sezme November 11, 2008 at 11:11 am

Sure, they were the “ancient pet of the Incas”, if by “pet” you mean “meat”. Are you calling the Obamas dog-eaters? That’s racist.

Godot November 11, 2008 at 11:13 am

[re=172979]Lazy Media[/re]: Yeah, poodles are hypoallergenic. Just don’t get some dumb toy poodle, and preferably not a white one because it’d just be too hard to keep clean for photo ops.

Actually who cares about hypoallergenicness anyway? Sure one of the girls is supposedly “allergic” but so what, she’ll get used to it and stop being allergic in less than a month. Most people who claim to be allergic are overreacting and are really just like “when I shove the entire dog in my eye it tends to get a tad watery”.

Cape Clod November 11, 2008 at 11:16 am

Perhaps he would make a better pet for Joe the Plumber.

golliwog November 11, 2008 at 11:16 am

Who’s holing the other end of that leash? That dog demands free range of the Licoln bedroom.

sezme November 11, 2008 at 11:17 am

How about a Kerry Blue Terrier? It’s hypoallergenic and would be a way of getting Kerry into the administration without actually, you know, getting Kerry into the administration.

sati demise November 11, 2008 at 11:18 am

That does not look like a Peruvian Inca Orchid to me. that looks like a Mexican Xoloitzquentle. In fact it looks just like my dog Moches brother! Moche is a red coated variety of this dog breed.
They usually have a coated one in every litter and now the AKC recognizes both the coated and naked Xolo.

Moche is still wearing his “Bark Obama ’08″ button as a member of the hypo-allergenic dog faction.

Moche and his friend Chappy are going to hold Mr. Obama to his promise of a dog for the girls. They are both members of the Puppy-Happy Children Alliance.

Seeing this picture makes me realize how badly I want this website to just be pictures of adorable puppies. I’m sure there is nothing else like that on any of the internets. Besides, didn’t Obama promise to make politics illegal? They are racist and divisive, let’s just end it, you guys.

Itsjustme November 11, 2008 at 11:38 am

Peruvian? Where I am from, we call that a Brazilian.

superfecta November 11, 2008 at 11:48 am

My cat is hypoallergenic. Unfortunately he is also allergic to everything, including, likely, our other cat. He’s a textbook example of why pedigree pets are somewhat lacking in the gene pool department (although he’s awesome), given the amount of cash required to keep him functioning – go mutt!

Pat Pending November 11, 2008 at 12:12 pm

I still say that the Obamas should adopt Tony Blair. He did such a great job as W’s poodle.

There’s quite a few dogs to choose from and nearly all of them have rescue organizations to help you find one that needs a home.

[re=173128]Garble[/re]: Greyhounds are on the list? Well then duh they need to adopt a greyhound. There are tons of them needing homes and you don’t need to fool with having a puppy around.
But the whole hypo-allergenic thing is kinda sissy. That’s why god gave us antihistamines.

PrairiePossum November 11, 2008 at 12:49 pm

If they’re considering something that ugly, they should just get a lizard and name it fluffy.

Pat Pending November 11, 2008 at 2:01 pm

[re=173150]lazyb[/re]: I say ‘Yes We Can’ to the greyhounds!! The Obamas are rather a long and leggy group anyway, and it would be nice to have a first dog that resembles its owners.

I would also love to witness a sight hound at the annual Easter Egg Hunt, possibly taking down the Easter Bunny…

Katherine_Owl November 11, 2008 at 3:57 pm

What a pretty darling! I hope they take it, even if they don’t want it. They can get it a “companion” if they really want a different dog; it would be such a shame to turn down such a sweet gesture.

We’re going to have the coolest White House ever. Man.

thebeatgoeson November 11, 2008 at 5:09 pm

Being very allergic to dogs myself (hives, wheezy cough), I wholeheartedly recommend a Portuguese Water Dog. We have one and I can “shove the entire dog in my eye” and not get itchy at all. Plus, they are adorable, smart, loving and lively beings.

bcnjake November 11, 2008 at 5:53 pm
