A modest suggestion for the Obama family dog
Since Barack has expressed his preference for adopting a mixed-breed dog from a shelter, there are number of crossbreeds they can choose. A poodle/schnauzer cross is affectionately termed a "Schnoodle" and the offspring of a chihuahua and pug is called a "Chug". I would also urge them to consider less well known hybrid dogs:

Collie + Lhasa Apso
Collapso, a dog that folds up for easy transport

Spitz + Chow Chow
Spitz-Chow, a dog that throws up a lot

Pointer + Setter
Poinsetter, a traditional Christmas pet

Great Pyrenees + Dachshund
Pyradachs, a puzzling breed

Pekingese + Lhasa Apso
Peekasso, an abstract dog

Irish Water Spaniel + English Springer Spaniel
Irish Springer, a dog fresh and clean as a whistle

Labrador Retriever + Curly Coated Retriever
Lab Coat Retriever, the choice of research scientists

Newfoundland + Basset Hound
Newfound Asset Hound, a dog to tide you over financial problems
(the new administration will desperately need a few of these after the last eight years)

Terrier + Bulldog
Terribull, a dog that makes awful mistakes

Bloodhound + Labrador
Blabador, a dog that barks incessantly

Malamute + Pointer
Moot Point, owned by...oh well, it doesn't matter anyway

Collie + Malamute
Commute, a dog that travels to work

Deerhound + Terrier
Derriere, a dog that's true to the end

Bull Terrier + Shih Tzu
Never mind: the Bushes should have vacated the premises by then
