I love that funny little doggie. It's sweet to see them together shopping at a pet store. I wonder if Bo picked out his own bone.

Too cute! Love that doggie.

President Obama has got to be wondering if he'll ever be able to wander a store again, like a "normal" person. I suppose eventually!

The woman in the next to the last picture must have had the thrill of her life when her dog and Bo got acquainted. How cute!

there, calm and relaxed, just shopping for the family.

He knows how to make them look even more foolish.

The man's got moves.

Michele is the best, but when she's not available, send in Bo!

He's the best PR for our President, other than the President, himself, and the two together: who cannot vote for a dog lover?

Looked to me like Bo wanted one of those stuffed toys instead of the rawhide. I know my dog would have, he doesn't care for those rawhide bones.

Rawhide is dangerous for dogs. Please don't give your dog rawhide. It can cause choking and/or blockage, is difficult to digest, can carry bacteria contamination and even toxic chemicals. Better to give them other kinds of chew treats and toys.

Cute photos. Interesting breed of dog. I like the way their legs look... like fuzzy tree trunks. You can't tell the difference between the leg and the foot. I don't know why, but it looks cute to me.

Unless they are working, then they need the fur.

This wonderful man just exudes "bonheur" and positivity. Don't always agree with him, but love him as a human being. SG
