Comment - I'm not too fond of the current US administration myself, but are you seriously saying that www.whitehouse.gov[1] is not a reliable third party source? SIS 12:12, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It's not third-party in this case. I'm not contesting the factual accuracy of the article, but the notability of the topic to justify a separate article. VG ☎ 18:26, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'd say whitehouse.gov is third party here. It's not Jenna Bush's blog or anything, it's a national government site. The dog isn't theirs. SIS 19:07, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Xclamation point 03:37, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
keep why are we here? Sources are all over. [2] is a good example. A merge, as suggest above is reasonable, but darn it, there is no way this could qualify for deletion. Hobit (talk) 04:53, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete An utterly non-notable animal of no special abilities or accomplishments. Notability is not inherited, and this dog only has mention in press stories in relation to a notable owner. Edison (talk) 16:18, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Erb? There are whole articles on this dog on major news sites. One was provided above. Heck, IMDB has a 9 minute short listed about this dog. Hobit (talk) 16:50, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - lots of Presidential pets have articles. Article is properly sourced and written. Ward3001 (talk) 04:15, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - zero possibility of this not meeting notability threshold, especially if Barney (dog) and India (cat) do. Long history of presidential pets meeting notability on wikipedia. Consider WP:SNOW... 69.137.62.229 (talk) 19:54, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
