Looking for Bavaria's First Dog

Markus Söder patting in the election campaign, the puppy dogmatix semi-unconscious. Other politicians put up with a dog in public - or want to impress, to be a "sharp dog".

Clever politicians have identified the dog long as an image factor. The clever politician puts the dog in public in scene, and thus also themselves. Think of Markus Söder and his famous Twitter photo, in which he sought an owner for the cute, button-eyed shelter dog Idefix - and hoped that a bit of Cuteness and Button could RUB off leap of faith on him.

Where: does the Prime Minister must be wrong if one claims that the dog is for him only a campaign mascot. After all, Söder has a Labrador dog named Fanny and a miniature Pinscher dog named Bella. As a first-born Fanny be officially in the rank of "First Dog" in the free state.

Now, a message from the New day suggests that Europe's "First Dog" is now a Bayer. The Terrier-mongrel Peluso, the President of the EU Commission Jean-Claude Juncker recently in the dog relief in Vilseck (in the district of Amberg-Sulzbach) has adopted. With his wife, Christiane Frising traveled Juncker in the upper Palatinate, to the Peluso pick up in Caruso rename him into his house, to Luxembourg, to take. There Caruso to replace now, apparently, the highest-ranking pet in Europe: Juncker's dog Plato, who, apparently, died.

The New day writes that Juncker's wife, "I have desired, after the death of her old dog" a new one. Europe's "First Dog" is now a Bayer, which is still wrong. Because Caruso comes from Spain, where it was Vilsecker dog relief, freed from a collecting station and are taken care. First, it must be comforting to Bayer so that at least the President of the EU Commission itself could soon come from the free state.

Manfred Weber (CSU) is regarded as a promising candidate for the Juncker succession after the European elections on may 26. May. Weber, the appearance mostly quiet and businesslike, could certainly be a "sharp dog," revealed recently, a delegate of the European people's party (EPP). Everything runs for the EPP candidate Weber smooth, may, the free state soon so is actually to boast, to make Europe the "First Dog".
