Everyone’s Talking About “Bo” Obama
I’m sure I have to be just one of hundreds of blogs and websites that are talking about President Obama’s new dog, Bo. What CUTE pictures they keep showing on the news. Here are some of the facts about the cute little puppy, Bo:
- He’s a 6 months old
- He’s NOT a Yorkie like me, but a Portuguese Water Dog
- Bo moves into the White House tomorrow
- Bo is a gift from Senator Ted Kennedy, who owns more than a few Portuguese Water Dogs
- Bo is named after First Lady Michelle Obama’s late father’s nickname.
- Like me, Bo is hypoallergenic…I think that means he must have hair, not fur. I know that’s true for Yorkies…we have hair, so are much less likely to cause allergies.
- President Obama and Bo will share the same initials!
- Can you think of any other “Bo facts” to share? Let us know in a comment
Congratulations to the Obama family on owning a dog, it’s fun and my owner and I think the dog is cute, even if it isn’t a Yorkie like me.
Now we have to go track down some information about Portuguese Water Dogs. We really don’t know a lot about them.
Also, we’re wondering whether Bo will do video’s like Barney, the former White House Dog?

Aspen, I’m sure the First Dog will prove to be a Bo-dacious little character, Bo-loved by the entire nation. Just like you, he is so cute, he will steal hearts. There is likely be a big all-American puppy “Bo-om.” Very exciting!
Hi Joyce,
Here I am ROTF again while my owner does the Laughing, yes, Bo-dacious indeed, Bo-loved, and yes, lots of people will be wanting Portuguese Water Dogs now.
Thanks for your visit!
