Everyone from the highly-paid punditry to the average voter agrees that it’s a flatout dogfight for the U.S. Presidency, from here to Election Day.


But as the votes of women, the working class and America’s emerging minorities are watched more closely than ever before, what of our country’s 72 million pet dogs? For the first time, that under-served ch’wing vote will have a chance to declare its political pawsition www.PetsVote.com.


As the thrilling party primaries give way to the summertime political conventions, leading to the November 2008 national election, Americans face the gnawing question: “Which major-party candidate will take up residence in the White House...and which of them will be left in the doghouse?”


From now through the November conclusion of the U.S. Presidential campaign, New York-based company Psychedelic Fur™ will be tracking the pupular vote for JOHN McCANINE and BARK OBAMA online at www.PetsVote.com, updated daily.


Dog lovers can also register their votes through a exclusive line of adorable pet tees and accessories by Psychedelic Fur ™, emblazoned with official campaign-style logos supporting BARK OBAMA and JOHN McCANINE – a declaration of your pup’s faith in our great American electoral system, as well as your warm and fuzzy feelings for the big dog who’ll be running the country, come next January. The PetsVote.com tally will be derived from the running total of orders for the items of each candidate. Over the years, consumer goods with the names of Presidential candidates have at times been surprisingly predictive of actual election outcomes.


The BARK OBAMA and JOHN McCANINE line will launch with tee-shirts for each candidate. Sizes available for dogs of all walks of life, from 3 to 80 lbs with sizes ranging from XS – XXL. Collars, water dishes and more will follow. A portion of the proceeds will benefit North Shore Animal League America, the largest no-kill animal adoption and rescue organization in the world.

Who’s the top dog of Election 2008? JOHN McCANINE or BARK OBAMA?
Paws up at www.PetsVote.com!
