The White House, First Dog Bo’s home, was hopping on Halloween! With approximately 2,000 visitors gathered to indulge in tasty sweets, First Lady Michelle Obama showed off her purrrrfect costume as a kitty cat. We know that that is the best companion costume to our boy BO’s year-long costume of adorable doggy-ness. We salute the First Lady for being a great mommy and thinking of the family dog on a day when the focus is usually on the kids. Bow Wow!

This Is For Bo!

Enya, a female Portuguese Water Dog, runs after swimming in the Neckar river in Ladenburg, 90 kilometres south of Frankfurt April 19, 2009. The rare Portuguese Water Dogs are becoming more popular since U.S. President Barack Obama brought his dog Bo into the White House.

U.S. President Barack Obama presents the first family's new Portuguese Water Dog puppy, Bo, on the South Lawn with his family at the White House in Washington April 14, 2009.
It’s no secret that First Dog Bo is the “most famous four-legged start in America” -which means he is the new “dogfather”! And because he is the king and has higher approval ratings than the President, it’s no wonder that a bunch of crazed “Portuguese Water dog” lovers are hounding breeders for a “Bo” of their own.
Ever since Bo was anointed First Dog, requests for Portuguese Water dogs have soared, according to the officials at the Portuguese Water Dog Club of America. That’s what I’m talking about! Bo’s the new dog king so it’s only right that he should have “wannabes” ’cause he’s a star!!! Source: The Daily Beast

Today, the day before Father’s Day, the President and First Daughter’s Sasha and Malia moosied on out for treats to soothe a sweets graving at the Dairy Godmother, a frozen custard shop just outside Washington.
The President indulged in a vanilla custard with hot fudge and toasted almonds; while Sasha and Malia munched on a brownie sundae treat with vanilla custard and a waffle cone with vanilla frozen custard respectively.

I can just hear Bo’s lips smacking BUT wait…our little shaggy canine friend was not forgotten because upon leaving the shop with bellies full of sweet treats, the Obama’s left with some puppy treats for Bo. What a lucky dog to get frozen pumpkin and peanut butter Puppy pops! Source: Kansas City.com

Apparently, our favorite PORTUGUESE WATER DOG, Bo recently attacked a news camera. FDW thinks it was all just a sneaky doggie trick to get more hugs and kisses! You be the judge after watching the video. Source: CNN Videos

WASHINGTON - JUNE 2:  The Obama family dog, Bo, is seen with a handler in the Rose Garden of the White House during U.S. President Barack Obama's departure to Saudi Arabia for the first stop on a trip to the Middle East and Europe June 2, 2009 in Washington, DC. Bo, a Portuguese Water Dog, was a gift from Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-MA).

Seen here-chillin’- in the Rose Garden of the White House. The President was preparing to depart on June 2, 2009, to Saudi Arabia as First Dog Bo chills with a White House aide AND a tennis ball. Doesn’t he look like he’s saying, “just try and take out”!

It seems that First Lady Michelle Obama is the one person that is always seen with First Dog Bo.

We wonder if he just LOVES her or if she is the one with the most time on her hands…hmmm. Or it could be that while the President is off doing what president’s do, Mommy-n-Chief is the one that Sasha and Malia stick with doggie duty. Ahhhh the thrills of doggie-hood :-)
