POLITICO
“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 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). As Bo turns 7 years old Friday, POLITICO takes a look at his fetching life.

Sådan spotter du en hundehandler
Hundehandlere, hvalpefabrikker og burhunde
- hvordan du undgår dem
Hvis du ikke er forsigtig, kan du, uden at vide det, komme til at støtte dyrplageri og misrøgt af hunde, ved at putte penge i hundehandleres og hvalpefabrikkers lommer.
Mange tror at det problem er man fri for, hvis man køber en hund med stamtavle. Men det er desværre ikke sandheden. Selv indenfor de mest velansete avlsforbund er der brådne kar, der avler usunde hunde, misrøgter deres avlsdyr og kun avler for penge og udstillingspræmier.
Du kan også risikere at skrupelløse hundehandlere forfalsker stambøger og dyrlægeattester, så et stykke papir er ingen garanti for at du får en sund og velfungerende hund.
Også det, der på overfladen ser ud som hyggeligt stueopdræt, kan være skalkeskjul for kynisk hundehandel. Nogle hundehandlere udnytter falsk drægtige tæver som surrogatmødre for hundehvalpe importeret fra østeuropæiske hvalpefabrikker. Det ser meget ægte ud når f.eks. en lille Mops ligger i en kurv og ammer et kuld hvalpe i hundehandlerens stue. Men hvalpene kan i virkeligheden være født af en helt anden tæve, der henslæber sit ofte korte liv under forfærdelige forhold i et koldt bur, og tvinges til at få hvalpe ved hver eneste løbetid indtil den dør af udmattelse.
Hvorfor er det vigtigt?
Det kan være fristende at tænke, at bare man selv vil behandle sin nye hund godt, betyder det ikke så meget at den evt. kommer fra dårlige forhold. Oven i købet kan man have tilfredsstillelsen ved at have "reddet" det lille væsen.
Men der er mindst tre ting, du bør tænke grundigt over før du køber en misrøgtet hvalp.
Den første er at hver gang en hundehandler får solgt et hvalpekuld, har han fået en god grund til at importere eller avle et nyt, og det betyder at flere hunde skal lide.
Den anden er at du kan risikere at få en syg hund, fordi der ikke er taget hensyn til om forældredyrene er bærere af arvelige sygdomme, om hvalpene er resultatet af indavl, eller om de har tilbragt deres første uger under uhumske forhold.
En tredie, og meget vigtig ting, er hvalpens socialisering. De første 8 uger af en hvalps liv er meget vigtige for dens evne til at omgås både mennesker og andre hunde resten af dens liv. Hunde fra hvalpefabrikker vokser op i bure næsten uden menneskekontakt, og tages fra moderen for tidligt. De vil være sky og måske aggressive, og det vil oftest være umuligt at rette op på.
Det kan være svært at vende ryggen til et hvalpekuld, der tydeligvis ikke behandles korrekt, når alle ens beskytterinstinkter skriger på at få lov til at redde de små fra deres hårde skæbne. Men et rettidigt nej kan redde generationer af hunde i fremtiden. Hvis ingen køber hunde hos hundehandlerne, stopper deres forretning til sidst.
Hvordan kan du sikre dig?
Når du kontakter en kennel eller hundesælger, få så mange oplysninger som muligt via telefon eller e-mail. Bed om vedkommendes navn, adresse, evt. kennelnavn, navn på hvalpenes forældre osv. Lav derefter en søgning på internettet, og se hvad der kommer frem. Finder du mere end to negative beskrivelser af personen eller kennellen, er der måske grund til at være på vagt.
Nogle hundehandlere bruger flere forskellige navne og adresser, så det kan være næsten umuligt at afsløre dem på forhånd, men så må du besøge vedkommende, og se efter følgende faresignaler:
Kennellen har hvalpekuld mere end to gange årligt, eller har flere kuld på samme tid.
Alle eller nogle af kennellens hunde går i bure, stald eller lade.
Du må ikke se alle kennellens hunde (undtaget er tæver med små hvalpe, som skal holdes isoleret de første uger).
Der er syge, afmagrede eller meget usoignerede hunde i sælgers hjem (vær dog opmærksom på at en tæve med hvalpe godt kan se noget "afpillet" ud).
De hunde du møder i sælgers hjem er sky eller aggressive.
Tæven med hvalpene ligger i en lade, udhus el. lign., i stedet for i familiens hjem.
Sælger kan/vil ikke vise billeder, dyrlægeregning eller anden dokumentation fra hvalpenes første uger.
Du må ikke se hvalpenes mor, far eller begge.
Sælger vil ikke oplyse hvilken hanhund der er far til kuldet.
Sælger vil ikke have at du besøger kuldet inden afhentning af hvalpen.
Sælger viser dig hvalpe, som er yngre end 2 uger, evt. uden at du samtidig får lov at se moderen.
Sælger tilbyder at bringe en hvalp ud til dig, eller mødes på en rasteplads.
Sælger forsøger at presse dig til en hurtig beslutning.
Sælger forlanger depositum før første møde, før hvalpen er født eller før der er underskrevet købskontrakt.
Sælger bruger ikke kontrakt, og/eller nægter at underskrive en kvittering el. lign.
Sælgers telefonnummer kan ikke spores (typisk mobiltelefon med taletidskort).
Du får tilbudt at få en hvalp med hjem, der er yngre end 8 uger.
Du får tilbudt en ørekuperet hvalp.
Sælger svarer undvigende eller slet ikke på spørgsmål om sundhed og avlsetik, eller bliver vred over spørgsmålet.
Sælger stiller ingen krav til dig, og spørger ikke om dine personlige forhold eller hundeerfaring.
Hold hovedet koldt!
En hundehandler kan være en særdeles veltalende person, som er i stand til at virke meget tillidsvækkende og overbevisende.
En god salgstale i kombination med synet af en kær hvalp, kan få dig til at sige ja til noget, du senere vil fortryde. Vent derfor med at tage beslutning om køb indtil tidligst dagen efter besøget hos sælger. Det er helt i orden at sige, at man lige har brug for at tænke sig om.
En god opdrætter sælger ikke til den første, der står med pengene i hånden, men er interesseret i at hvalpen kommer til at godt hjem, hvor beslutningen om at få hund er velovervejet. Derfor er der grund til at være skeptisk, hvis sælger prøver at presse dig til at tage en hurtig beslutning, evt. ved at "true" med at der er andre interesserede købere.
Det vigtigste er at du lytter til din mavefornemmelse - har du en god oplevelse ved at besøge sælger, eller føler du at der er noget galt?
Dette er hvad en hvalpekøber oplevede ved et besøg hos en dansk hvalpefabrik:
- Jeg burde have fanget alle de vink der var dernede, men jeg var så usikker. Han var på en eller anden måde meget stærk, og god til at få det hele til at se godt ud selv om det slet slet ikke var det.
Man er lidt blind når man er der, det indrømmer jeg. Hvorfor rummene var så indelukkede. Hvorfor vi ikke måtte se moderen med hvalpene. Hvorfor alle hannerne var i små bure og den vi hilste på var meget beskidt.. Hvorfor han lagde de 3 små hvalpe i en kurv foran os, med træk fra vinduet og uden deres mor i lang tid, 4 dage gamle. Jeg ved ikke hvordan hvalpe skal have det, men jeg følte det var lidt fejl. Man føler sig utrolig dum. Stemningen var slet ikke god.
Er du i tvivl efter et besøg hos en sælger, så tag dig god tid før du træffer en beslutning. Besøg gerne flere steder, hvor der er hvalpe til salg, for at få et indtryk af de forskelle der er mellem kenneller. Køb kun der hvor du føler dig godt informeret, hvor hundene har det godt og bor sammen med familien, og hvor du har tillid til sælger.
Hvad er en hundehandler?
Den mest gængse definition på en hundehandler er at det er en person, der opkøber hunde med henblik på videresalg. En hundehandler kan dog også have sin egen hvalpefabrik - dvs. et sted hvor der avles hunde i stort tal, uden hensyntagen til dyrenes velfærd, helbred eller sociale behov.
Danske hvalpefabrikker er typisk nedlagte landbrug, der ligger langt fra anden beboelse. Men hvalpene bliver ofte solgt fra lejligheder i byerne, for at få det til at ligne almindeligt stueopdræt.
Nogle hundehandlere sælger fra gårdens stuehus, hvor man måske har nogle hvalpe gående. Samtidig kan der gå op til 50 hunde i en lade under kummerlige forhold, men dem får køberen ikke at se.
Der findes også kenneller, som helt lovligt har så mange hunde, at nogle af dem må bo i en stald el. lign. Der kan være rent og pænt, og hundene kan se sunde ud, men det er stadig ikke et optimalt hundeliv.
Det må være op til den enkelte, om man kan leve med at støtte den form for avl.
Hvad kan man gøre?
Hvis du kommer ud til et sted, som du mener er en hvalpefabrik, eller får kontakt med en person, som du mener er hundehandler, så meld det omgående til Dyrenes Beskyttelse eller politiet. Det er den bedste måde at hjælpe de hunde, der bliver udnyttet af skrupelløse personer.
Det er snart mange år siden jeg skrev den, men den er desværre stadig sørgeligt aktuel. Send linket til en bekendt, der tænker på at få hund.

Forskellen på Bulldogs og andre hunde.
torsdag den 5. april 2012
Den forbandede snor!
Som sådan er snoren et praktisk hjælpemiddel, når den bruges korrekt - dvs. som en sikkerhedsline mellem hund og ejer, en sidste udvej i nødstilfælde.
Problemerne opstår når vi bruger den til mere end det.
Hvis du var en Bulldog.
De såkaldt "brachycephale" racer - altså fladsnudede hunde som f.eks. Engelsk og Fransk Bulldog, Mops og Pekingeser - har i de seneste år været særdeles populære, især hos unge, der skulle have deres første hund. Det bælgøjede, savlende, hængemulede look betragtes som kært og charmerende - og ikke mindst et prestigeobjekt, for den type hunde er nemlig ofte, og med god grund, meget dyre
Hvis du har sådan en hund elsker du den sikkert meget højt. Og der er ingen tvivl om at du også behandler den godt. Men prøv engang at forestille dig hvordan dit eget liv ville være, hvis du skulle gå rundt med det samme udseende som en Bulldog. Det charmerende flade fjæs og den korte tykke krop koster nemlig også dyrt i livskvalitet.
Din næse ville være så flad, at du kun kunne trække vejret med besvær. En almindelig gåtur hen til nærmeste kiosk ville gøre dig svært stakåndet. Værre endnu hvis det var sommer og varmt - så ville du være i overhængende risiko for at få et hedeslag, fordi du ikke kunne ventilere nok til at afkøle dine indre organer.
I øvrigt ville du foretrække at sidde op og sove, fordi dine luftveje på denne måde ikke så let ville lukke til som i liggende stilling.
Allerede når du var midt i 20'erne ville du få ondt i ryg og led pga. din usunde kropsbygning, og du ville snart foretrække at bevæge dig så lidt som muligt. Det meste af dit liv ville du tilbringe halvsovende i sofaen.
De 4 kvadranter - down & dirty
I det følgende vil jeg prøve at forklare lidt om de principper, der bruges i moderne hundetræning, og også noget om hvorfor nogle former for træning er bedre end andre
Vi starter med at forklare ordene positiv og negativ. De betyder ikke "godt" og "ondt", som mange ellers tror. I trænings-fagsprog betyder "positiv" at man giver noget, og "negativ" at man fjerner noget.
Dvs. at hvis jeg giver dig en 10'er, så er det positivt, men hvis jeg tager den fra dig, er det negativt.
På den anden side kan jeg også give dig en lussing. Det er også positivt, fordi jeg tilfører noget, der ikke var der før - i dette tilfælde smerte. På samme måde kan det være en god ting at gøre noget "negativt". Hvis du f.eks har en splint i fingeren, og jeg tager den ud, har jeg fjernet din smerte.
At forstærke en adfærd betyder at øge sandsynligheden for at adfærden sker. Hvis jeg f.eks. giver dig 1000 kr. hver gang du besøger mig, er der ret stor sandsynlighed for, at du vil besøge mig oftere end hvis jeg ikke gav dig noget. Samme princip anvender vi når vi træner indkald med hunden. Hvis din hund får en godbid hver gang du siger dens navn, vil der være større sandsynlighed for at den kommer hen til dig, end hvis den ingenting får. Det kaldes positiv forstærkning (R+) - vi har øget sandsynligheden for at hunden kommer når der kaldes, ved at give den en belønning.
Straf er noget der nedsætter sandsynligheden for at en adfærd sker. Hvis jeg f.eks tvinger dig til at gøre rent hver gang du besøger mig, vil du nok ikke komme så ofte, som hvis du ikke skulle gøre rent - og slet ikke så ofte, som hvis jeg gav dig 1000 kr.
Det virker dog ikke altid efter hensigten - det kan nemlig være meget svært at få en hund til at forstå nøjagtig hvad det er, den bliver straffet for, og det nedsætter effektiviteten af metoden.
Lad os sige at vi har en hund, der gøer og trækker i snoren hver gang den ser en anden hund. Ejeren straffer med skæld-ud og ryk i linen, men fordi situationen er så kompleks - der er en fremmed hund, et fremmed menneske med den fremmede hund, andre ting, der sker på gaden osv. - er sandsynligheden for at hunden forstår at det er dens egen reaktion, der straffes for, ret lille. I mange tilfælde vil hunden forstå straffen således, at det simpelthen er ubehageligt og farligt at møde fremmede hunde og personer, og det vil få den til at reagere kraftigere næste gang. På denne måde bliver aggression og straf en ond spiral.
Ved at fjerne noget fra hunden, kan vi altså få den til at holde op med uønsket adfærd. Det, vi fjerner, skal være noget, hunden gerne vil have. Det bliver altså en straf for den at miste noget. Dette "noget" kan f.eks. være kontakten med en person eller en anden hund. Den engelske TV-træner Victoria Stillwell bruger "time-out" som negativ straf - altså at hunden lukkes ude af fællesskabet, hvis den ikke opfører sig ordentligt.
Andre eksempler på negativ straf er: At standse eller gå i modsat retning hvis hunden trækker i linen. At ignorere hunden hvis den springer op ad én. At stoppe legen med en hvalp der bider.
Vi husker at "negativ" betyder at fjerne noget, og "forstærkning" betyder at øge sandsynligheden for at en adfærd sker. Så ved at fjerne noget fra hunden, kan vi altså få den til at udføre ønsket adfærd. Det vi fjerner, skal derfor være noget hunden ikke vil have - smerte eller ubehag.
Heldigvis går langt de fleste hunde ikke rundt og har smerter til daglig, men det betyder til gengæld at for at bruge negativ forstærkning, må man først tilføje hunden smerte, og derefter fjerne den, når hunden udfører den ønskede adfærd. Et godt eksempel på en sådan træningsmetode er "tvangsapport", der især bruges i jagthundetræning. Her tilfører man hunden smerte for at få den til at åbne munden. Det kan f.eks. være med det ulovlige el-halsbånd, eller simpelthen ved at vride hundens øre rundt. Når hunden åbner munden for at skrige, stopper træneren apporten ind i den åbne mund, og i samme øjeblik standses smertepåvirkningen. Hunden lærer altså, at for at undgå smerte, skal den tage apporten.
Træning med smerte og ubehag er stressende for hunden, og stress forringer indlæringsevnen. Desuden er ny adfærd meget nemmere og mere ukompliceret at indlære med positiv forstærkning. I tilgift vil man få en gladere hund, der udfører den ønskede adfærd af lyst og ikke af frygt.
De fire ovennævnte træningsmetoder kaldes tilsammen "De fire kvadranter" og benævnes i "fagsprog" R+ (positive reinforcement), R- (negative reinforcement), P+ (positive punishment) og P- (negative punishment).

Selvkontrol - en begrænset ressource?
En række psykologiske studier af mennesker har fået forskere til at drage den konklusion, at selvkontrol er noget, vi kun har en begrænset mængde af. Og når kvoten så at sige er opbrugt, har vi ikke alene sværere ved at koncentrere os om en opgave - vi har også en større tendens til at havne i potentielt farlige situationer.
Et nyt studie, "Too dog tired to avoid danger: Self-control depletion in canines increases behavioral approach toward an aggressive threat" af Holly C. Miller, C. Nathan DeWall, Kristina Pattison, Mikaël Molet og Thomas R. Zentall, tyder på at det samme gør sig gældende for hunde.
Forskerne delte deres testhunde op i 2 grupper. Den ene gruppe skulle udøve selvkontrol ved at sidde stille på samme sted i 10 minutter. Den anden gruppe opholdt sig i et bur i 10 minutter, men havde ellers bevægelsesfrihed og kunne f.eks. selv bestemme om de ville ligge, sidde eller stå.
Efter de 10 minutter blev begge grupper af hunde udsat for 2 forskellige tests - et aktivitetslegetøj med godbidder, som de skulle finde ud af at få ud af en flaske, og et møde med en aggressiv hund i et bur.
Forsøget viste at de hunde, der havde brugt 10 minutter på sit-øvelsen, hurtigere opgav at lege med aktivitetslegetøjet, medens hundene, der havde været i bur, legede længe og ivrigt. Og i mødet med den aggressive hund, gik hundene, der havde været igennem sit-øvelsen, tættere på buret med den gøende og snerrende hund, og udsatte sig derved for potentiel fare, medens den anden gruppe fornuftigt holdt afstand.
Forskernes konklusion var at selvkontrol er en begrænset ressource, også hos hunde, og at en udtømning af denne ressource kan føre til uhensigtsmæssig adfærd.
Spørger man hundeejere hvad der, efter deres mening, er noget af det vigtigste, deres hund skal lære, er selvkontrol ofte meget højt på listen. Men dette studie kan være et fingerpeg om at vi, som hundeejere, skal vælge vores kampe med omhu, og i højere grad "slippe tøjlerne" på områder, der er mindre vigtige for hundens og omverdenens generelle sikkerhed.
Hunde, der i mange timer i løbet af en dag, tvinges til at udøve selvkontrol og gå imod deres drifter, kan risikere at "hævne sig" ved at være ekstra ukontrollérbare og dårlige til at koncentrere sig i situationer hvor dette ellers er påkrævet. Det er derfor et spørgsmål om den omfattende kontrol, som nogle hundeejere, især af "den gamle skole", foretrækker at have over deres hunds liv, i virkeligheden er en god idé?
Er det f.eks. absolut nødvendigt at tvinge hunden til at opholde sig i sin kurv, eller til konstant at gå "på plads" på almindelige gåture? Hvis hunden får lidt mere frihed i hverdagen, er der faktisk noget, der tyder på at den bliver lettere at holde under verbal kontrol, når det virkeligt gælder.
At betragte selvkontrol som en begrænset ressource kan være et meget nyttigt redskab under træningen. De fleste hundeejere ved allerede at hundes koncentrationsevne er begrænset, og at dette gælder for nogle mere end andre. Små korte trænings-seancer på 5 minutter er derfor som regel mere effektive mht. indlæring end længere forløb på f.eks. 1/2 time.
Den gode nyhed er at lageret af selvkontrol kan fyldes op igen. Et lille hvil og/eller et mellemmåltid kan som regel klare sagen for både hunde og mennesker, siger forskningsleder Holly C. Miller phd.

B-17F #41-24585 Wulfe Hound 360th BS (PU-B)
Original 303rd BG(H) B-17F-27-BO
First 8thAF B-17 captured and flown by Germans
MIA 12 December 1942 Mission #6 to Rouen, France: 1Lt Paul F. Flickenger Crew
A wheels-up landing was made in a hayfield near Melun, France (60 miles S.E. of Paris) with ball turret guns pointing downward. Germans were able to transport the B-17 to the nearby Leeuwarden airfield in the Netherlands where repairs made and put in flyable condition. The damaged Ball Turret was never replaced. It was painted with German Insignia and side code DL+XC with yellow paint on the undersurfaces. It was carefully examined and tested at the Luftwaffe Test and Evaluation Center at Rechlin. Wulfe Hound was first flown by the Germans on 17 March 1943, followed by more testing and development of fighter tactics against B-17s. It was transferred to the Luftwaffe "Kampfgeschwader" KG200 Squadron at Rangesdforf, Germany on 11 September 1943. It then took part in training and highly secretive clandestine missions between May and June 1944.
by Mario Schulze
For several years I have known that a captured B-17 was left at the Oranienburg Airfield during the last days of the WWII, and also the fact this plane never took off. The first time I recognized the plane on a US-reconnaissance photo of the airfield made on April 20th, 1945, I knew immediatly that this B-17 could never fly. The right wing seems to be damaged, Also the complete tail section and the plane stood in an oblique position, which means the right landing gear was broken. Right behind the damaged tail a small bomb crater is visible. I believe that the plane was damaged during the USAAF raid on April 10th, 1945, as bombs of 139 B-17s changed the field into a moon landscape. [See: 303rd Bomb Group Mission #357]
Here is an enlargement of the recon photo. The B-17 is within the white square:
The Russians had used the airfield since they reached Oranienburg around April 24th, 1945. After the war they used it as a bomber base. Later they based helicopters on the field, and it was a most interesting place when I was a young boy. After the reunion of East and West Germany in 1990, it was decided that all former Allied Forces had to leave Germany, and also the Russian forces. The Russian helicopter base was closed in 1994 and the unit moved back to their home country. Since that time the former airfield was not in use.
Our authorities decided to change the field to an business area and the former main runway was used for a new highway. But before this could happen, the area had to be cleared of all supposed ammunition, scrap and ruins. The first findings of the B-17 were made in the late 1990's. A rudder of the horizontal stabilizer were found, which unfortunately found their way to militaria memorabilia collectors. I observed it on one eBay auction several years ago.
In 2000 I got my first parts of the plane. They were one of the oil tank service hatches, the fragment of the fuel transfer valve, and some wing structure fragments.
Here are pics of the oil tank filler service hatch and the fuel transfer valve:
Two years ago I got information from the Chief Assistant of the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial, that they have received some parts of a B-17 found at the former Oranienburg airfield. I got the opportunity to see the parts, which are now stored at the Sachsenhausen Memorial. I identified it immediately as part of the left nose side of a B-17F or early B-17G, due to the small first left hand window just behind the plexiglass nose. After I had saw all the parts, I found that it must be a early B-17F. This B-17 must had have the same nose armament configuration as the famous "Memphis Belle," with an large gun window right in the middle of the left nose side.
Here is a picture of the three main parts and the position at the "Memphis Belle":
All this time I had no idea of the identity of my "Trojan Horse," but I knew it must have been used by the Luftwaffe's special unit, the Kampfgeschwader (KG) 200. All parts were overpainted in German gray. Later I learned that her underside was painted in bright yellow, over the original US painting of light gray and olive drab. As all the parts which were found at the time, I supposed that this B-17 only could be the "Wulfe Hound" or the 384th BG "Flack Dancer."
In August 2008, I noticed that a new field at the business area was being prepared for a new building. Members of the ammunition recovery service were working at the place where all the parts of the B-17 were recovered. My fellow researcher, Ruediger, called me and gave me the info that a lot of parts of the B-17 were recovered. He only took a service hatch with probably the A/C serial number on it. He gave me the number an I told him "JACKPOT, guy it's the "Wulfe Hound."
Here is a picture of the sad remains of the former beauty:
Bo Obama gets a playmate! Obamas adopt another dog

Bo has a new best friend in the White House.
President Obama and his family took in a second Portuguese Water Dog named Sunny, an adorable addition who will serve as playmate and “little sister” to First Dog Bo, according to the White House’s official website.
Sunny, named by Michelle Obama for her cheerful disposition, officially joined the family on Monday. The puppy was born in Michigan just last June.
Sunny was named by Michelle Obama, reportedly for her cheerful disposition. The puppy was born in Michigan just last June.
“We suspect Sunny will follow in Bo’s footsteps and keep the President company in the Oval Office, go for walks with the First Family after their 6:30 family dinner and even jump up on the First Lady’s lap from time to time!” reads a statement on the website introducing the pup.
Pictures and video on the site show the furry pooch lounging on the South Lawn, romping side by side with Bo and happily wagging her giant tongue.
Both Sunny (left) an Bo are Portuguese Water Dogs.
The cute canine has a lot to live up to.
Bo’s official responsibilities include visiting Walter Reed and Children’s National Medical Center, inspecting holiday decorations at the White House and greeting guests during tours and the Easter Egg Roll.
The First Family added Bo to the family soon after President Obama won the White House in 2008.
But it can get lonely in the presidential dwelling.
In October, the First Lady told reporters that she hosted a “doggie play date” because Bo “doesn’t have enough dog interaction.”
Bo’s 'official responsibilities' include visiting Walter Reed and Children’s National Medical Center, inspecting holiday decorations, and greeting guests during tours and at the annual Easter Egg Roll. He'll now have help from Sunny (not pictured).
In honor of the new doggie kin, the Obamas are making a donation to the Washington Humane Society, the website says.

Seeking a presidential вЂ˜pawtograph’: Letters from America’s kids to the first dogs, Sunny and Bo

It has to be said that Barack Obama was not really a dog kind of guy.
Didn’t grow up with one. Wasn’t a bachelor with a big, happy mutt. He and Michelle, as a new couple, didn’t dote on a puppy before having kids.
He did not, in fact, get a dog until becoming president and arriving at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., and only then to fulfill a campaign promise to his daughters. Malia was allergic to most dogs, but she and Sasha wanted a puppy.
“So whether we’re going to be able to balance those two things, I think, is a pressing issue on the Obama household,” he said in an interview while still president-elect.
See? The kids, talking him into it.
They were good lobbyists, though, and in April, three months after Obama took office, Bo, a black-and-white Portuguese water dog, moved in (the breed is hypoallergenic). The family had looked for a shelter dog, but Bo had been returned to a breeder in Texas, which made it a good compromise. Sen. Ted Kennedy (a dog guy), who had obtained one of his dogs from the same breeder, made Bo a gift to the Obamas.
Sunny, a female of the same breed, arrived four years later.

The president seemed to enjoy the dogs during his two terms, but you had the sense that this was in the role of Being a Good Dad. The outdoor pictures of him with the dogs are mostly with the whole family out walking. He’s usually wearing a tie, if not a suit.
“Some of my fondest memories of the White House are just being with the girls on a summer night and walking the dogs around the South Lawn, talking and listening to them, trying to get Bo to move because sometimes it’s hot,” he told Essence magazine in an end-of-term interview.
Lyndon B. Johnson, when he picked up his beagle by the ears and people got upset? Bill Clinton with Buddy the chocolate Lab? George W. Bush with Barney the Scottish terrier, scampering around the White House with the Barney-cam?
You got the idea those were dog guys, with or without kids.
Richard Nixon, dragging his dog Checkers into an allegation of campaign finance irregularities?
You just felt bad for the dog.
Still, it’s fair to say the first dogs of the Obama administration were rock stars. Their schedule was so packed that they had a monthly agenda of appearances, overseen and approved by the first lady. They were regulars at the White House Easter Egg Roll and on Christmas visits to hospitals. They sometimes visited with foreign dignitaries at the White House, and the first lady was accompanied by Bo on White House tours she gave on her husband’s inaugural anniversary.
Children wrote them fan letters, because it is an American thing to do.
“They can sit on my lap, they sit on my chair, they cuddle with me,” Michelle Obama said in early 2016.
No word from the president about whether they could sit on his lap, or on his chair. But like most presidents, as Harry S. Truman observed, it’s not likely that he had any doubts about who two of his most loyal friends were in this town.
This story is part of a virtual museum of President Barack Obama’s presidency. In five parts — The First Black President, Commander in Chief, Obama’s America, Obama and the World and The First Family — we explore the triumphs and travails of his historic tenure.

Barack Obama’s watershed 2008 election and the presidency that followed profoundly altered the aesthetics of American democracy, transforming the Founding Fathers’ narrow vision of politics and citizenship into something more expansive and more elegant. The American presidency suddenly looked very different, and for a moment America felt different, too.
The Obama victory helped fulfill one of the great ambitions of the civil rights struggle by showcasing the ability of extraordinarily talented black Americans to lead and excel in all facets of American life. First lady Michelle Obama, and daughters Sasha and Malia, extended this reimagining of black American life by providing a conspicuous vision of a healthy, loving and thriving African American family that defies still-prevalent racist stereotypes.
But some interpreted Obama’s triumph as much more.

The victory was heralded as the arrival of a “post-racial” America, one in which the nation’s original sin of racial slavery and post-Reconstruction Jim Crow discrimination had finally been absolved by the election of a black man as commander in chief. For a while, the nation basked in a racially harmonious afterglow.
A black president would influence generations of young children to embrace a new vision of American citizenship. The “Obama Coalition” of African American, white, Latino, Asian American and Native American voters had helped usher in an era in which institutional racism and pervasive inequality would fade as Americans embraced the nation’s multicultural promise.
Seven years later, such profound optimism seems misplaced. Almost immediately, the Obama presidency unleashed racial furies that have only multiplied over time. From the tea party’s racially tinged attacks on the president’s policy agenda to the “birther” movement’s more overtly racist fantasies asserting that Obama was not even an American citizen, the national racial climate grew more, and not less, fraught.

If racial conflict, in the form of birthers, tea partyers and gnawing resentments, implicitly shadowed Obama’s first term, it erupted into open warfare during much of his second. The Supreme Court’s 2013 decision in the Shelby v. Holder case gutted Voting Rights Act enforcement, throwing into question the signal achievement of the civil rights movement’s heroic period.
Beginning with the 2012 shooting death of black teenager Trayvon Martin in Florida, the nation reopened an intense debate on the continued horror of institutional racism evidenced by a string of high-profile deaths of black men, women, boys and girls at the hands of law enforcement.
The organized demonstrations, protests and outrage of a new generation of civil rights activists turned the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter into the clarion call for a new social justice movement. Black Lives Matter activists have forcefully argued that the U.S. criminal justice system represents a gateway to racial oppression, one marked by a drug war that disproportionately targets, punishes and warehouses young men and women of color. In her bestselling book “The New Jim Crow,” legal scholar Michelle Alexander argued that mass incarceration represents a racial caste system that echoes the pervasive, structural inequality of a system of racial apartheid that persists.

Obama’s first-term caution on race matters was punctured by his controversial remarks that police “acted stupidly” in the mistaken identity arrest of Henry Louis Gates Jr., Harvard University’s prominent African American studies professor, in 2009. Four years later he entered the breach once more by proclaiming that if he had a son, “he’d look like Trayvon.”
In the aftermath of racial unrest in Ferguson, Mo., and Baltimore, and a racially motivated massacre in Charleston, S.C., Obama went further. In 2015, Obama found his voice in a series of stirring speeches in Selma, Ala., and Charleston, where he acknowledged America’s long and continuous history of racial injustice.
Policy-wise Obama has launched a private philanthropic effort, My Brother’s Keeper, designed to assist low-income black boys, and became the first president to visit a federal prison in a call for prison reform that foreshadowed the administration’s efforts to release federal inmates facing long sentences on relatively minor drug charges.
Despite these efforts, many of Obama’s African American supporters have expressed profound disappointment over the president’s refusal to forcefully pursue racial and economic justice policies for his most loyal political constituency.
From this perspective, the Obama presidency has played out as a cruel joke on members of the African American community who, despite providing indispensable votes, critical support and unstinting loyalty, find themselves largely shut out from the nation’s post-Great Recession economic recovery. Blacks have, critics suggested, traded away substantive policy demands for the largely symbolic psychological and emotional victory of having a black president and first family in the White House for eight years.
Others find that assessment harsh, noting that Obama’s most impressive policy achievements have received scant promotion from the White House or acknowledgment in the mainstream media.
History will decide the full measure of the importance, success, failures and shortcomings of the Obama presidency. With regard to race, Obama’s historical significance is ensured; only his impact and legacy are up for debate. In retrospect, the burden of transforming America’s tortured racial history in two four-year presidential terms proved impossible, even as its promise helped to catapult Obama to the nation’s highest office.

Obama’s presidency elides important aspects of the civil rights struggle, especially the teachings of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. King, for a time, served as the racial justice consciousness for two presidents — John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson. Many who hoped Obama might be able to serve both roles — as president and racial justice advocate — have been disappointed. Yet there is a revelatory clarity in that disappointment, proving that Obama is not King or Frederick Douglass, but Abraham Lincoln, Kennedy and Johnson. Even a black president, perhaps especially a black president, could not untangle racism’s Gordian knot on the body politic. Yet in acknowledging the limitations of Obama’s presidency on healing racial divisions and the shortcomings of his policies in uplifting black America, we may reach a newfound political maturity that recognizes that no one person — no matter how powerful — can single-handedly rectify structures of inequality constructed over centuries.
