That dog’s name is ‘Baby’. The photo was taken as part of a campaign against animal abuse in puppy mills.
Baby is an abused puppy mill survivor who lived through a 9-year ordeal in order to become a “national spokesdog” to raise awareness about cruelty in the dog breeding industry.
Like all the breeding dogs, Baby was tattooed with a number and had her vocal cords cut so the owners wouldn’t have to listen to her cries to be let out of her cage. Her leg was amputated after her rescue due to the abuse she suffered.
I agree. Big deal. The empty suit held a puppy for a photo op. He’s still spent more of our taxes in his first 100 days than any other president in history. It didn’t help either.
If b.o. is so sweet – why didn’t he adopt this dog or one like it — remember he promised to adopt a dog like this – instead he let that murderer Kennedy buy him a 3 thousand dollar dog instead of taking a stand and saying, “No, I promised the American people I would get my girls a dog from the pound.”
Just chalk it up to one more lie…. awkward for him and for those who keep buying into his lies…
um, he didnt adopt this dog because SHE ALREADY HAS AN OWNER. I agree he should have adopted a rescue dog, but what does that have to do with politics?? name one president, dem or rep, who never did one thing in their personal life that someone didn’t agree with.
Thank you for the story behind the picture. On its own, the picture is rather strange, but I am proud that our president doesn’t mind looking a bit silly for a good cause. Even so, I hope this picture isn’t offensive to the “Blue Dog” Democrats!
snair, failed how?? because i found it even more awkward than the pic itself that the “spokesdog” has no vocal chords?? i think thats what ballfour was getting at…
First time in years we have a communist dictator wanna-be president who has 74 “Czars.” He’s also running the economy into the ground and has proposed more debt than every single president before him COMBINED. You can’t tax your way to prosperity, Barry.
Um…I don’t know about you, but I visit AFP for a laugh and to avoid news, politics, and other downers…
While this photo is not awkward, the fact that someone chose to post it here certainly is…
I know, I know, just click past it. But seriously, let’s don’t post this sort of thing here. Let’s keep AFP a happy place where we can enjoy the VanHelsings, the Style Queen, male naked preganacy photos, and all the compound bow remarks we can handle!
Come ON people! This is a picture from a book that campaigned against puppy mills. The dog is named Baby and she has no leg because she’s from a puppy mill. A woman nicknamed Drive-By Angel rescued her when she was about to be killed because she got too old to produce puppies. Her leg was shattered when she jumped off of a couch because she was in a small cage her whole life, and didn’t get the nutrients she needed to grow her bones right.
The back story makes this hard to make fun of….and yet. This really should’ve been cropped. I’m sorry Mr. Lincoln, but there’s “too much look” in this picture.

There’s just WAAAY too many jokes for this one to list!
After he praised MJ and he’s holding a poodle it may be good that Bama has a good
looking wife and two kids that favor him a lot.
Wow. Leftist politics. Bookmark deleted.
Uh… Seriously?
Yeah, those damn leftists! Man, supporting a president who actually may do something right for the country… crap, those commies are CRAZY.
[/sarcasm]
oh, seriously, boo bloody hoo.
lol @ no one reading the username. XD
LOL…
I saw that right after I read his comment. Funny that no one else did!
is that dude serious? even if this site was republican (we don’t know if it is…dem or rep) why the hell would i delete brilliance?
The dog and Obama have the exact same facial expression.
Holy crap! They do!! Wow.
That is too funny!
They also have the same health care plan!
Wait a sec… Isn’t Bo a predominately black dog??? And much bigger than this one???
kate—oxy-clean.
rofl
Who’s dog is that?
How did they get the dog and Obama to have the exact same smug/confident expressions? Hilarious!!!!

Well, that’s awkward…..not much to say after that.
How could you not love Obama after a story like that? What a sweet dude.
It’s easy
I agree. Big deal. The empty suit held a puppy for a photo op. He’s still spent more of our taxes in his first 100 days than any other president in history. It didn’t help either.
Love the cigarette tax, Obama. What’s next?
is that a joke?…cut vocal cords? not much to say. either way, doesn’t seem like such a good “Spokesperson”…;-0

His daughter is allergic to most dogs. That limited their choices to dogs with hair instead of fur.
i dunno if you know this or not, but hair IS fur. it’s just more coarse in texture.
The texture is absolutely what makes them different. In that respect, they ARE different.
um, he didnt adopt this dog because SHE ALREADY HAS AN OWNER. I agree he should have adopted a rescue dog, but what does that have to do with politics?? name one president, dem or rep, who never did one thing in their personal life that someone didn’t agree with.
Thank you, Summer.

Giz
ugly dog
I agree. The dog being held is cute, though.
amy, you made me giggle…i think i love you
Back to the main point…How can you have a “National spokesdog” that had his vocal cords cut out???
If you want more information, Google is your friend.
‘baby puppy mill survivor’ will return relevant results.
ballfour, that in itself is awkward.
Hahaha I love how the two replies totally FAILED to see the joke there. Funny comment.
snair, failed how?? because i found it even more awkward than the pic itself that the “spokesdog” has no vocal chords?? i think thats what ballfour was getting at…
We caught the joke, but it wasn’t funny. It was more like trashy and poorly played. Sorry.
How is this an awkward family photo in any way?
Wow, too bad this is photoshopped.
and you know it to be photoshopped because you have seen many photoshops in your time, am i right?
Just like we know puppies aren’t made in mills…
dang, i thought in honor of billy mays obama musta washed his dog with oxy-clean!
The dog’s backstory makes the posting of this pic on this website awkward
wow… he’s no Abraham Lincoln, that’s for sure.
amen!
Maybe Jimmy Carter.
Obama looking GOOD lol
first time in YEARS that we have a good looking, intelligent, well composed president!
can’t get that happiness out
Ha! Ha! Ha! That was a good one Annie – I can’t stop laughing! LoL!
*You were joking right?!
**awkward**
Not funny – go ahead, try again. It might work out a second time…
First time in years we have a communist dictator wanna-be president who has 74 “Czars.” He’s also running the economy into the ground and has proposed more debt than every single president before him COMBINED. You can’t tax your way to prosperity, Barry.
amen
rock on

Are you with me? Anyone? You in the back there?
He was obviously invited to the BYOLWD dinner.
Come ON people! This is a picture from a book that campaigned against puppy mills. The dog is named Baby and she has no leg because she’s from a puppy mill. A woman nicknamed Drive-By Angel rescued her when she was about to be killed because she got too old to produce puppies. Her leg was shattered when she jumped off of a couch because she was in a small cage her whole life, and didn’t get the nutrients she needed to grow her bones right.
Dang, I’m laughing my head off right now.
random i voted for lincoln
good grief rachel, catch up with the adults :}
Very awkward. Def glad I got to see this.
The back story makes this hard to make fun of….and yet. This really should’ve been cropped. I’m sorry Mr. Lincoln, but there’s “too much look” in this picture.
How bada**.
Does noone know that this is a dog from a puppy farm? He took this picture on behalf on the author of a book advocating to outlaw puppy mills.
Something about a white dog owned by the first black president standing in front of Lincoln that somehow sits right with me.
Awh. That’s not awkward. That’s just cute.
LMAO.
Truth!
lolololol
correction… BYOLWD’d
HELLARIOUS!
