That's a corgi.

> Pushinka subsequently became irascible, and "a little nippy" according to Caroline Kennedy, which she attributed to her upbringing in a scientific laboratory.

No it's because she's a corgi.

Hey, if you wanna go on a site called Hacker News, suggesting technical articles and continue to read a one worded post linking to Wikipedia about politicians gifting each other pets, you sure are getting what you came here for.

Hacker News is for intellectual curiosity, not only for technical articles.
