Uno the Westminster beagle still going strong

uno%20and%20erin.jpg
Propelled by his "every dog" status, Uno the Westminster-winning beagle continues to grab the limelight, three weeks after his record-making win at Madison Square Garden.

His biggest photo op? A paw-shaking with President Bush (who's a Scottie man, himself), in the Oval Office, no less, scheduled for April 9.

Three three governors -- of Illinois, Missour and Texas, where three of Uno's four co-owners live -- have requested audience with the canine celebrity.

Look for tricolor little hound on March 16, opening the Macy's Flower Show, hopefully not leg-lifting on any azaleas.

And, of course, there are the endorsements: The Hotel Pennsylvania has promised to put Uno up any time he's in the city on Westminster biz. And Midwest Airlines is flying him gratis from his South Carolina home with handler Aaron Wilkerson, though most times that requires a plane change in Milwaukee.

UNO - And what a "Q-T" you are! I sure hope you will be sitting in the seat by your owner "on the plane" with a very good harness on when you fly Midwest Airlines. We do not need another Vivi escape with you too.
