Americans like pets, so to see the president with their pet makes them seem more human. All but like 3 presidents had a pet in the White House. George Bush had Barney, Bill Clinton had Socks the cat, then got a Chocolate Lab named Buddy when the Monica drama happened, Ronald Reagan had Lucky (Bouvier des Flandres) and Rex (King Charles Spaniel). So Americans have some weird love for presidents with pets.The ironic thing, it was rumored that Harry Truman once said, :if you want a friend in Washington, get a dog." The problem was when someone gave him a Cocker Spaniel for Christmas he gave it away. The American public attacked for being anti-dog... lol
