It was meant to be a walk in the park. But, with his hands gripped tightly around his dog’s red leash, Barack Obama is clearly struggling to show Bo who’s boss.
Dressed casually in a white open-neck shirt with the sleeves rolled up, the stressed U.S. president gritted his teeth in embarrassment as he failed to gain control of the family pet.
In a week which has seen Mr Obama’s popularity slip due to his response to the BP oil disaster, it seems even the cute black-and-white Portuguese water dog is running circles around him. Heel! Bo pulls on his leash as Barack Obama holds on tight outside the White House
One-year-old Bo was given to the Obamas’ children – Malia, 11, and Sasha, eight – last year after they were promised a pet on the campaign trail.
Luckily, Michelle Obama comes to the rescue as the couple arrived at the Congressional Picnic on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, yesterday.
The pair broke into a jog to keep up with the pet, before Mr Obama finally gained control - striking a triumphant pose to his audience to show he wasn't defeated. Who said dogs are man’s best friend?
Putz.
Since 0 is so weak, he shouldn’t have gotten such a strong dog.
She is always lovely, she is America’s first lady.
/s
0ama needs a toy poodle.
well, when you consider Bo knows the difference between a window and a door at the White Hut, it figures
“Michelle looks lovely here”
Looks like the dog is taking the sissy boy for a walk.
After reading just the headline, I thought to myself, “If you have to tell someone you’re in charge, you’re NOT in charge.”
Then I read the story and find out it’s about the dog. BWAHAHA, even the dog knows Hussein isn’t in charge.
Not very ‘alpha male’ of him. HAHA.
Well from her facial expression I’d say she’s in a foul mood...
She is barefoot, outdoors like a college freshman in Florida.
Obama is an idiot.
I bet that poor dog is housed in a cage most of the time....Where's PETA when you need them?
She’s pretty nicely dressed for a picnic - and I like the way she’s doing her hair, even if it’s not her real hair ;-).
She’s wearing tan flats.
Zero looks ghey.
OMG...that is embarrassing!
The dog was probably never trained....
You can tell a lot about a dog’s owner by the behavior of the dog.
To a de-luxe apartment,
