TGIF! Help Kenzie get her dream date with First Dog Barney
Happy Friday!
And speaking of happy -- take time today to make Kenzie, a Wheaton-colored Scottish terrier from Seattle, WA., exactly that.
Kenzie, you see, has a bad case of puppy love. A big crush. On Barney, the nation's First Dog. As you can see from this little poster she made.
The fact that Barney, a black Scottie, soon will be moving out of the White House has not deterred her. Kenzie, with the help of her Scottie brother Boone, has been relentlessly pursuing her dream date with the Barnster. She has launched a YouTube video campaign, asking Barney to please phone. Watch and you can see Kenzie is quite a catch: She works out, is an actress and world traveler, and quite cute.
Kenzie tried sending Barney a Valentine and has been on national television, pleading her case. Barney's family acknowledged her advances last year, and even sent some gifts: Pawtographed photos of the Presidential pets, Nylabones, etc. But alas, no date.
Here is where you come in.
