"White House electrician and kennel manager" is a hell of a job title.

I don't think she was a full corgi (you almost never see all-white corgis, and not quite the right head/body shape) but she definitely had some corgi in there, or a similar herding breed. There's no way Strelka was a full corgi, either (although the idea of stray corgis running around Soviet Moscow is awesome, lol) but she also had a very expressive, corgi-ish face!
Hey,
if you wanna go on a site called Hacker News, suggesting technical articles and continue to read a one worded post linking to Wikipedia about politicians gifting each other pets, you sure are getting what you came here for.

Well, not right now anyways.
That's a corgi.

No it's because she's a corgi.
