The US First Family With Bo


Have you asked yourself why of all breed they go for a Portuguese water dog? Pres. Obama’s first choice for a dog was actually a shelter dog. But they didn’t go for a shelter dog because the Obama family needs to consider the situation of their daughter Maila. Maila has allergies and she needs to have a dog that is hypoallergenic.

Way back in 2008 the President said on his speech “you have earned a new puppy that is coming with us to the White House.” There have been rumors or guesswork made as to what type of breed they will have for a dog. But the guesswork stopped when finally they received a gift from Senator Ted Kennedy. Senator Ted Kennedy is a fan of Portuguese water dog. Bo was six month old when he became part of the first family’s dog. Bo, actually earned the name “first dog”, like terms given to the President’s wife “first lady”. He is not the only dog to earn the term “first dog”, those other dog associated to previous President’s earned the same title.

They received Bo as a gift from Senator Ted Kennedy in April 2009. Bo was born in Texas in October 9, 2008. Bo is one of the famous dog ever existed. If there are stars and celebrities to dog, Bo will certainly be part of it.
