Found! Bo Obama's Starry Leash

PetSugar — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 08:26:25 -0800

Lucky dog! First pooch Bo has a rotation of enviable leashes and collars - not only does he ♡ Obama but now he's showing off his true colors of red, white, and blue with a starry leash.
A White House staffer took the Portuguese Water Dog for a stroll around the South Lawn on Oct. 31 and I zoomed right in to find a pattern nearly identical. "Patriotic Stars" comes in collars (regular and martingale), harnesses or leashes in two lengths for $16 and up - are you getting stars in your eyes, too?

Do Tell: Who Does the Most Dog Duty in Your Family?

Sloooow down there, Bo - I wanna get a good look at you! We've seen both Barack and the girls taking care of the first pooch, and here's Michelle walking (or getting walked by) this cute pup. It's great to have a family of humans to chip in for the dog walking (especially for early morning or late night duties) but who's left holding the leash most often in your household?

Bo's getting so big and sporting a different dog accessory than last time! See for yourself in the gallery when you read more.

Even More Bo! First Dog Frolics With First Family

PetSugar — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 11:35:42 -0700

Welcome home - what better way to pass time than with the super-cute Bo! Sasha and Malia played with the pup while waiting for the presidential helicopter to land on the South Lawn yesterday and then the trio reunited with a group hug. (Group "awwww.")

I'm betting they shared tales of this cute pup while the president was off on official business, but Bo still shows his daddy love and support, sporting the same collar and leash set as we've seen before.

The Vacation's Over, Bo Is Back to Business!

PetSugar — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 04:00:54 -0700

Ahh, for me, the saddest part of vacation is when it comes to an end but Bo Obama seems eager to scamper onboard on the way back to DC. After spending the week on Martha's Vineyard, he's heading back to his normal life at the White House - naturally via Air Force one, how else would a presidential pooch travel?!

Even though there was word of his very own doggie parade on the island when he arrived last week, the First Dog was a no-show to the big event. Oh well, I'm sure he was booked solid with fetching and frolicking with the girls - he looks as playful as ever coming for the camera like it's a yummy snack, hopefully one of those bags has treats inside!

See a bunch more of Bo when you read more.

Found! Bo Obama's Collar and Leash Set

PetSugar — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 09:00:13 -0700

Well of course Bo loves Obama, that's his human dad! What a ruff life - over the weekend, he got his very own puppy parade in Martha's Vineyard so here's hoping we'll see more of this celebripup as their vacation unfolds. If you also want to show off presidential love via your pampered pals (if that's your thing), check out the same set rocked by the First Dog.

For $22 each, your pooch can have an I ♡ Obama collar (small, medium, or large) and leash for his next walktime up Main Street . . . or Pennsylvania Avenue. Presidential staff and secret service, not included.

The Scoop: Guest of Honor Bo Gets His Very Own Parade!

It's been a while since we've seen the first pooch, but these cute pictures make it all worth it! Find out where Bo's heading off to when you start this slideshow.

Bo Hits a South Lawn Luau . . . But Needs This

PetSugar — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 10:30:05 -0700

We wouldn't leave our pets out of a family party in the backyard and the same is true for the first family including Bo in some fun. Michelle (and Malia) walk their Portuguese Water Dog down to the South Lawn to attend a luau hosted by President Barack Obama for members of Congress and their families yesterday. I think I see a wagging tail!

Hopefully the event includes dog-safe snacks, and I'm glad to see the girls' hibiscus leis far from Bo's mouth as that's a plant toxic to dogs! What I don't see is any Hawaiian print on the pooch. Sad. Granted his curly hair makes it impossible to spot the collar but I've picked out some print ideas for another big bash. Hey, and maybe next time the first family travels to Hawaii they'll hit up my favorite Cocojor shop for a doggie shirt, too?

How Much Would You Pay For Bo the Beanie Baby?

PetSugar — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 06:00:10 -0700

Two words 'cause it's on: Bo Mania. While I love glimpsing the cute pup in piccys, I'm not sure I'd want a stuffed version. Or maybe I'm just telling myself this since Bo the Beanie Baby is pretty darn unavailable, selling out within hours of going on sale on Apr. 16.

But, you know those lucky shoppers wouldn't let this pass by . . . especially considering the price those ill-advised-then-pulled "Marvelous Malia" and "Sweet Sasha" dolls go for on eBay. I've found a couple listings still up for this toy – thoughts?

In the Spotlight: Whatchu Lookin' At, Bo?

PetSugar — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 00:05:46 -0700

Barack Obama's been on the road lately, making friends with enemies and, most recently, visiting a plant in Iowa which produces towers for wind energy production. Well, lookee who anxiously awaited his return yesterday . . . none other than Bo himself! The pup watches the president walk across the South Lawn (site of that famed romp) and all I can say is good thing there are bars up cause that happy pooch may just wanna take a leap of faith to give up a warm (wet) welcome ASAP. Although I'm betting our glimpses of Bo will be limited, I can't wait to hear how the first family adjusts to their first dog!
