Caption Obama & Bo

[Lucky9teen]

Showing off Bo : US President Barack Obama is pulled by the family's new six-month old Portuguese water dog Bo as he walks on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, DC.

"I suspect the dog will disappear shortly. It's intended to be a photo op. It will serve that purpose this week, then go away."

I agree with you.

I am pretty sure I heard that the dog had been adopted by someone else and it did not work out. Bo is six months old so it is unlikely he would have been at the breeders all that time.

They are very active dogs.

LOL - me too. I’m 5’1 and small and have a large Pit Bull and he KNOWS who the boss is (and it’s not him!).

Bo: “I’ll be glad when this photo op is over and my loving handlers come to my rescue

Speaking of all of the Obama house guests...

Is his mother-in-law still living there?

These dogs are noted for their comic behavior. From this picture where Bo is sticking out his tongue - it appears the Obama's dog has taken the chance to let people know just what he thinks of his new owners! And in the other pictures, Obama seems to display the same level of leadership qualities with Bo that he has shown as POTUS. He can't keep up!

The President demonstrates the Chicago "Blues Brothers" method of dog-walking...

"He said he would get a shelter dog and then got a pedigreed dog."

Yeah, he said he'd get a mongrel (like himself), then gets a purebred.

“I suspect the dog will disappear shortly. It’s intended to be a photo op. It will serve that purpose this week, then go away.”

Absolutely correct. Hussein needed the distraction from the economy, Tea Parties, etc., and this dog will fill the bill. Precious Daughter’s allergies will reappear conveniently, and then it’ll be “buh-BYE” to the pet.

Well, Bo, the dog, is the celebrity of the moment and celebrity is what attracts the American Idol and Dancing with the Stars type voter.

This dog was on the front page of “The Washington Post” today(above the fold), and on the front page of the Post’s Style section.

Gee, do you think the post has thing for the family O?

SYMBOLISM
The dog represents America's enemies and foes and Obama, well....he represents himself, being pulled to and fro, at their wim.

BWaahahahahahahahahaha...

Off camera: "Phony, Phony, Bo-Bony, Banana, Fanna, Foe, Fony, Fee, Fie, Moe, Mony, PHONY!!"

Obama: "Okay...who said that?"

TOTUS, TOTUS, come here TOTUS. (whistle,whistle,whistle)

They are trying to prevent their fishwrap from being used to potty train dogs.

At least it proves he’s not a Muslim, right? Muslims won’t have a dog, it’s verbotten/harim/whatever.

BO on a short leash (redux)

Dog sure hasn't bonded with the Obamas- seems to be ignoring them all or trying to get away- not even affectionate with Malia, just wants to pull away and run

Sasha looks like she is unwilling to touch the beast

A 6 month old dog that is returned to the breeder- may NOT be the smartest or best disciplined dog! I think they got their hands full, for a bunch of novice dog owners. Michelle doesn't strike me as a patient kind of person to try to control a dog that wants nothing to do with her.
They should have gotten a younger small dog (a true puppy) the girls could cuddle and enjoy.
