Did You Know

 Did you know, President Warren G. Harding's dog Laddie Boy had his own seat at cabinet meetings? Supposedly, the dog howled for the three days prior to the President's death.

Filed away for future trivia quizzes, although I am not sure too many will know the answer, and I will be a star.

Thanks for sharing that Wikipedia link. I didn't know that, but now I do.

It doesn't surprise me about the dog's howling though, because I know some animals have that type of instinct.

That is a fun trivia fact!

That’s pretty cool and I believe that about his dog…poor thing. Many animals have an instinct that we can’t understand but we should embrace it.
