Bo, a Portuguese water dog, was a gift to the Obamas from the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., a key supporter of Obama's 2008 presidential campaign who became close to the family. Bo helped Obama keep a promise to daughters Malia and Sasha that they could get a dog after the election.Both were constant presences around the White House and popular among visitors there, often joining the Obamas for public events.
In a post featuring a slideshow of images of Bo - including one of him sitting behind the president's Resolute Desk in the Oval Office - Mrs. Obama recounted his years bringing some levity to the White House. “He was there when Barack and I needed a break, sauntering into one of our offices like he owned the place, a ball clamped firmly in his teeth. He was there when we flew on Air Force One, when tens of thousands flocked to the South Lawn for the Easter Egg Roll, and when the Pope came to visit,” she wrote.
Mrs. Obama wrote that she was grateful for the time the family got to spend with him due to the pandemic, and said that over the past year, “no one was happier than Bo.”Associated Press writer Darlene Superville contributed to this report.
