Obama Poses with Three Legged Baby

President-elect Obama hasn't yet picked out a pooch for his girls but that hasn't stopped him from posing for some camera time with Baby, a three legged rescue pup. This photo and more can be found in a new book by Jane Kohl called A Rare Breed of Love.
Kohl gave a home to Baby after the dog was rescued from a puppy mill only hours before she was to be put down. Baby's vocal cords had been removed and she had been deemed too old to carry any more litters. Her leg had to be amputated due to her ill treatment at the mill.
In addition to photos of Baby posing with celebrities, A Rare Breed of Love also features essays by Alice Walker and Gloria Steinem in addition to Baby's story.
Word has it that Obama promised baby that he would adopt a shelter dog.
