NEW YORK – If dogs are your thing, a museum in New York City is offering an exhibition of paintings of all the puppies who have had the honor of living in the White House.
The AKC Dog Museum is a museum located at 101 Park Ave in Manhattan, just a few blocks from the Consulate General of Mexico, and is offering tours of a collection of paintings by all the loyal friends of presidents that have been painted on their stay at the White House.
