I believe animals can tell us things.
Especially pets.
I think their interaction with people can really give you insight into what a person is about. It can tell you how that person is behind closed doors when nobody is around. It can tell you the kind of environment the family is living in. A pets interaction with family members can tell you everything with regard to what kind of safe, loving household they belong too.
Is the pet always angry? Does the pet live in fear? Is the pet a danger to others? etc. etc. etc.
With this in mind, watch the instinctive action of Bo "The WhiteHouse Dog" as Michelle Obama began to read a Christmas story to young children. Based on this... isn't it clear what kind of household the Obama's are behind the scenes?
I'll let the video tell the story.
Full story.

(7,572 posts)I noticed from the beginning of his puppy days at the White House, it was Michelle in charge of the leash with Bo. That is one beautiful, distinguished, cute doggie! In my opinion, the cutest ever to live at the White House. What a lapfull!

The joy they give us... our little (or big) pets.

Lovely altogether.
