And I once had an awkward moment, just to see how it feels.

6. Wonder how many shots it took before Bo sat still? Thanks Jackeens
Wait, are those bits of a video news camera stuck in his teeth?!?

And what is that cool looking building photoshopped into the background?

20. How to recognize BO
I remember in the beginning when everyone was wondering about the White House official dog, a Portuguese Water Dog was mentioned. Originally the breeders didn't know that one of their puppies was going to the Obama's.

When that SAM picture showed up on the net, the husband told his wife that it was one of their puppies and she said something to the effect that No, she didn't think so, but when she looked at the picture she got all excited and said, "Yes, look at his boots."

If you notice, his right white boot is shorter than his left one. LOL Now I always look at the feet to see if it's BO.

Thanks, Jackeen. One of my favorite pictures.

21. Adorable bit of fluff!
That South Lawn must be huge..the Organic Garden is on the South Lawn and it's nowhere in sight from this angle.
