Fala, or officially "Murray of Fala Hill", was closely associated with FDR. The little Scottish terrier was mentioned in his speeches and often in the press. The dog became a part of the president's approachable public image. Fala lived with Eleanor at Val-Kill after FDR's death in 1945. She frequently referred to him in her newspaper column My Day. Fala is buried near the Roosevelts in the Springwood Rose Garden.
