Obama announces death of former 'first dog' Bo

The Portugese water dog was a perfect fit for the Obamas becausenamed partly for pioneering R&B musician Bo DiddleyBo was joined at the White House in 2013 by Sunny, a 1-year-old girl of the same breed. Bo was the one with white paws and a large white spot on his chest.,"Whether they’re cuddling up with me on the couch or rolling around in the backyard, I love these two balls of fur.

Both pets were known for frolicking on the White House lawn with the Obamas. The breed soon became popular and was well represented, in 2013, at theWhen President Donald Trump took office in 2017, he said he didn't have any dogs because he didn't"have any time" for them. President Joe Biden's election meant a return of dogs to the White House: He brought two German shepherds, one of which,Obama tweeted Saturday that Bo"was exactly what we needed and more than we ever expected. We will miss him dearly."

Condolences. Bye bye Bo.

Big deal. What makes his dog so special. All dog lovers have lost their loves

Did the dog have something on Hillary?

I think you can believe him

Ok, we get it...their dog died. Jeez.

Aww..🖤

'First dog'? Isn't it Shinzo Abe?

Bo is at the Rainbow Bridge.

My condolences to Bo😔

The media spent 4 years telling us how dump Trump is and then they dropped this on us?

Thank you to the Obamas,including Bo, for being what our White House families should be - A CLASS ACT ! You inspired us to be better.

I've lost several over the course of a lifetime. It's never easy. But I do believe all dogs go to heaven and look forward to seeing them all again.

😢

So sorry for your loss 🙏

I am so sorry, President Obama. I have looked up Bo (and Sunny) periodically on YouTube and have had such fun watching their cuteness. I'm sure he knew how much you and your family loved him. Rest in peace, Bo, and thanks for being such a loveable First Dog.

Did he eat him?

💔💔💔💔

Condolences to the Obama family.

Bo Obama: A look back at the first dog's fetching life“Sasha and Malia … you have earned the new puppy that's coming with us to the White House.” With those words — uttered during President-elect Barack Obama’s victory speech in 2008 — America began its love affair with the former first family’s new pet. “Bo Obama,” they’d call the Portuguese water dog, who would soon find himself chasing tennis balls and running on the lush White House lawn — often alongside one of the most powerful men in the world (and later with his sister, Sunny, whom the Obamas would adopt in 2013). Sadly, the Obamas announced Bo's passing on Saturday. POLITICO takes a look at his fetching life. ☹️🙏🏻☹️🙏🏻☹️ Really great pictures of Bo Rip bo, your the best thing to come out of that administration
