First Year as First Dog

Loved this little story in the Washington post about Bo (US President Obama's dog).

The most adorable non-school-age member of the Obama family -- first dog Bo -- celebrated his first year in office on Wednesday with little fanfare, not even a mention on the White House Web site. But then, the Portuguese water dog may not realize he's internationally famous.

A gift from the late Ted Kennedy, Bo was born in October 2008 (pedigree name: Amigo's New Hope) and briefly lived with another family before making his formal White House debut last spring. Since then his major job has been to look increasingly cute in photos (Bo racing on the South Lawn, giving Oprah a high-five, barking at Santa, frolicking in his first snow). He has also made the first family even more all-American: The first lady walks him in the morning, the president at night.
