美'第一狗'將入白宮(圖)

The Obamas have settled on a first pet - a 6-month-old Portuguese water dog that the Obama girls are naming Bo (see photo), AP reported. The black and white dog, a gift from Senator Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts, will make his big debut Tuesday afternoon. The Obamas opted for a Portuguese water dog because their eldest daughter Malia has allergies and the breed has hair it does not shed.
