The only one I see there is a mix and depending on the mix it may not be hypo allergenic. I'm just glad they got a dog that is a good fit for their family and situation. Obama said he would prefer to get a rescue dog but sometimes that doesn't work out especially when you are limited in your choices. In any event, he has opened awareness of rescue dogs, even though he didn't get one himself.
This dog was a gift from Ted Kennedy and trained by his personal dog trainer. Personally I would rather see the Obama's get a pup that fits with his children and family than to appease public opinion. This pup if for two young girls and what fits them comes first in my opinion.
