The tradition of pets in the White House goes all the way back to
the Founding Fathers. From the parrot and foxhounds of George
Washington to Spot and Barney, the current canines of the Bushes,
the First Family's animal companions have always had a special
place in America's heart.
These various (and often exotic) animals have enjoyed the
special privileges of living in the nation's capital, giving them
access to the scenes of power. So when something goes awry in the
White House, who better to solve it than these pet detectives
Did Rex, Ronald Reagan's King Charles spaniel, play a role in
uncovering Irangate What mystery did Franklin Roosevelt's Scottish
terrier, Fala, uncover when left on the Aleutian Islands How would
some of the more unusual pets, such as John Quincy Adams's pet
alligator or Calvin Coolidge hippopotamus, search for clues in the
halls of the Executive Mansion
