How many words will be in the next President's dogs name?
Current forecast: New First Dog has a one word name (74% chance
5%)
5%)
Combining all predictions, the current most likely outcome is New First Dog has a one word name with a probability of 74% (down 5% in last 1 day)
Over two dozen of the United States Presidents had pet dogs while in the White House. One in three American households have pet dogs.
It is most common for Presidents to have dogs with single word names such as; Lucky, Duke, Buddy, Lucky or the obscure Sweetlips (Washington) or the non descript Him and Her (Johnson).
Market is asking, when the next President moves into the White House, will the first ***NEW*** family dog that lives in the White House with them have a single word name, or will the dog have a multiple word name?

If I remember right, the Clintons had Socks when they moved into the White House, but adopted Buddy during Bill's presidency.
Thanks for your question. To keep it interested I'm asking about a newly announced pet, as I tried to say in the last sentence. If the new President moves in and says something like, "Me and my wife and kid(s) are thrilled to be here and our family and our dog are adjusting from our home in Illinois/Arizona/whereever to these new digs.." THAT wouldn't count, I'm specifically asking about a NEW pet dog that joins the family AFTER the new President and family move into the Big House.
