First Lady Michelle Obama thinks Sunny will follow her brother Bo’s footsteps, “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!”

The Portuguese Water Dog, a hypoallergenic dog, works great for the Obamas and people with dog allergies. Click to view other allergy friendly hypoallergenic breeds.

Lovely Dogs in Hamilton, OH

We were traveling in Hamilton, Ohio this past weekend for our annual Challenger baseball tournament, and I got to meet three beautiful dogs!

Meet Rocky, a 10-week old Doxie, who came to watch the games; Comet, a therapy dog who ran the bases with his boy and would happily go down the slide with a sister as long as his young athlete was at the bottom to greet them; and Curly, who was hanging at Bass Pro Shop in spite of having an injured back.

Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
