US President Barack Obama has said the First Family will wait to select a dog till spring when his daughters Sasha and Malia would be more enthusiastic walking a pet.

He also indicated that they have not yet selected a breed. "You know, we're still experimenting," Obama said when pressed to divulge the possible breed of the First Dog.u00a0
