If you're heard Barack Obama's acceptance speech, then you know that his two daughters are getting a puppy.

The big question is what kind of dog will Sasha and Malia get? Michelle Obama says she wants to rescue a dog, but her youngest daughter is allergic and that might cause problems.

"The calmer the household, the better the transition is going to be for the dog," he said, adding that housebreaking will likely be the Obamas' biggest challenge. "The White House is pretty big, with all those places to pee and mark."

In an online poll, over 42,000 voters nominated the poodle over the soft-coated wheaten terrier, miniature schnauzer, bichon frise and Chinese crested as a dog for the new first family. Mini schnauzers and bichons are good dogs, Chinese crested are not the prettiest and wheaten terriers are hyper!

We wish the Obamas the best of luck picking out their new dog.
