No White Dogs in the White House

Oh shit, my dog is white. But she's half chinese (shih-tzu), so hopefully that means I'm sufficiently PC.

And no white cats, either! I am proud to say I have a politically correct black cat.

SOOO good to see these important issues being covered!

Hmmm. I have two cats, tortoiseshell and black and white. Everyone has to get black and white pets now to be PC. :P

The Legend of Black Shuck
For centuries, inhabitants of England have told tales of a large black dog with malevolent flaming eyes (or in some variants of the legend a single eye) that are red or alternatively green. They are described as being 'like saucers'. According to reports, the beast varies in size and stature from that of simply a large dog to being the size of a horse.
There are legends of Black Shuck roaming the Anglian countryside since before Vikings. His name may derive from the Old English word scucca meaning "demon", or possibly from the local dialect word shucky meaning "shaggy" or "hairy". The legend was part of the inspiration for the Sherlock Holmes novel Hound Of The Baskervilles.

It is said that his appearance bodes ill to the beholder, although not always. More often than not, stories tell of Black Shuck terrifying his victims, but leaving them alone to continue living normal lives; in some cases it has supposedly happened before close relatives to the observer die or become ill. In other tales he's regarded to be relatively benign and said to accompany women on their way home in the role of protector rather than a portent of ill omen. Sometimes Black Shuck has appeared headless, and at other times he appears to float on a carpet of mist. According to folklore, the spectre often haunts graveyards, side roads, crossroads, near bodies of water and dark forests. Black Shuck is also said to haunt the coast road between West Runton and Overstrand.

Where He Prowls
One of the most notable reports of Black Shuck is of his appearance at the churches of Bungay and Blythburgh in Suffolk. On 4 August 1577, at Blythburgh, Black Shuck is said to have burst in through the church doors. He ran up the nave, past a large congregation, killing a man and boy and causing the church tower to collapse through the roof. As the dog left, he left scorch marks on the north door which can be seen at the church to this day.

However in the Maldon and Dengie area of Essex, the most southerly point of sightings, seeing Black Shuck means the observer's almost immediate death. In other tales he's regarded to be relatively benign and said to accompany women on their way home in the role of protector rather than a portent of ill omen.

These black dogs have been said to help lost travelers find their way home and are more often helpful than threatening. It is said that they are seen at crossroads and many English pubs have been named "The Black Dog."

He should have gotten one of these and then take him into news conferences.
