Water Dog puppy Bo. Some are saying that President Obama broke his promise to get a rescue dog. Others are accusing him of getting a dog from a breeder. Bo is not really a rescue dog. Ted Kennedy gave him to the Obamas as an act of friendship. Tags: breeders Obama dogs. Yadda, yadda, yadda.

Here's a great question I received via direct message on Twitter ( www.twitter.com/mary_martin ): "Do you think that even if Obama had adopted a shelter dog-it still may have caused a run on breeders? Yes, the demand for dogs like Bo will increase, and that's a problem. Would it matter?" But betrayal is also a problem.

But I didn't campaign for a presidential greyhound for exactly the same reason Obama's decision was disappointing: it glorifies pure breed dogs. And I bet my net worth, which isn't what I'd like it to be, but still, that the demand for Portugese water dogs like Bo will increase as a result of this bad decision.

The following is a guest post from the amazing animal lovers of Adopt-a-Pet.com. Sadly there are 4 million healthy adoptable companion animals killed in shelters each year due to overcrowding.
