Bush's remaining Scottish terrier from his White House days got one. Miss Beazley died yesterday at age 9 after a fight with lymphoma, reports Politico. "She was a source of joy during our time in Washington and Dallas," wrote Bush. "And even though [Barney] received all the attention, Beazley never held a grudge against him."
