Bo Obama is on a diet, president says

As the White House family dog, Bo knows how to capture the spotlight. But apparently, he needs some help watching his figure.

The Portuguese water dog is on a diet, according to U.S. News & World Report

President Obama leaked the news to a group of young diners attending the first Kids State Dinner that the first lady hosted at the White House.

"I only have one request for you, and that is try not to drop any scraps on the floor," the president told the kids gathered in the East Room Monday. "Because Bo... is on a diet right now and he will eat anything that he sees, especially some of the tasty meals that you guys have prepared."
