President Keeps His Promise to Daughters
Bo moved into the White House yesterday, fulfilling a promise President Obama made last year to daughters Malia and Sasha that they could get a dog.
Bo is a 6-month-old Portuguese water dog, sometimes called a Portie or a PWD. Bo was a gift to the girls from Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, who is a fan of the breed and has a puppy from the same litter as Bo's. The breed is hypoallergenic, which means it's better for people who are allergic to dogs, and Malia Obama is allergic.
