Bo Obama's Half-Sister Ruby Discovered In Minnesota

BEMIDJI, Minn. — It's not everyday you learn a member of your household has a relative in the White House. But Julie Quanrud and husband Ric Meixell said they noticed things very familiar about the Obama family's new pet, Bo the Portuguese water dog.

Quanrud said she was suspicious because the 6-month-old Bo's muzzle is the same as that of their 2-year-old Ruby. And the white markings on Bo's black coat duplicate those of Julius, a full sibling of Ruby.

An investigation determined Ruby and Bo have the same father, named Valkyrie's Dr. Watson Is Here.

So Ruby is a half-sister of the presidential pooch.

3. What the hell kind of name

4. My sister Sandra used to have a

miniature poodle named Sandy's Dry Martini. They sure can come up with some doozies.

5. Valkyrie is the kennel name. The rest of the name doesn't

usually match up with the kennel name.

The litter theme was probably Sherlock Holmes or fictional detectives or famous doctors.

It's how interested people can tell at a glance what kennel produced the dog and which litter he is from, so you could tell without looking it up that he is from the same litter as, say, Mike Hammer or H. Bosch or Dr. Livingston (I presume).

6. Oh okay

I didn't know that. It just sounded like one of those names that comes into one's head when they are really wasted and feeling clever.

7. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to come up with good names.

They also have to be unique and 31 letters or less. I noticed on my last registration, however, that if you pay extra you can add a few extra letters.

I'll use one of my dogs as an example.

Advent Starz-N-Stripes, call name Chip.

Advent is my kennel name. The owner of the kennel name Starz co-owned his mother with me and put all her titles on her so I incorporated her kennel name as a courtesy.

His Sire was a very fine dog - a Best in Show, and multiple specialty show-winning Outstanding Sire. His name was Ch Malagold Stars-N-Stripes, as he was born on July 4.

Chip was born on July 5 and is a "Chip" off the old block, thus the play on his sire's name.

Chip's sister is Campbell, Advent Chicken-N-Starz, so named because she's always been "Chunky" in the sense that she has a lot of bone and looks quite sturdy.

There are people who are incredibly talented at coming up with great registered names, and I am more than envious of their talent. :)

8. Which one of them will turn out to be in the country illegally...

...and have to be deported back to Portugal? And how much outrage will Beck and O'Reilly be able to simulate?
