Is Bo Obama Tweeting?

On Twitter, there's a fluffly black Portuguese water dog who claims to be the nation's First Pup.

Though it's likely something less than true, it's kind of fun to imagine Bo Obama holed up in a Wi-Fi spot in the White House, throwing down his thoughts on things like:

*this garden is sooooo much fun to bury bones in

*for all you chicagoans Bo Obama is hoping for a Bulls win tonight!

*sasha needs to learn to stop pulling my hair!

*mmmmmmmmm, nothing better than a belly rub!

Real or otherwise, his Twitter account has more than 1,200 followers.

About Jill Rosen

Jill Rosen is a reporter at The Baltimore Sun. During her nearly 20 years in journalism, she has covered news and features — including a surprising number of stories that involved animals. There were the dog Christmas carolers in State College, Pa. There were the hounds who toured with a production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The story of a preschool teacher at Baltimore’s Father Kolbe School who had to replace her class guinea pig, who died over the winter holiday. A harrowing tale of what it was like to make homemade pet food ...

Though her clean freak of a mother refused to allow her to get a dog, she has had a number of pets through the years, including goldfish named Bob and Fingle, a betta fish named Ichabod, a wild rat terrier named Wendel, who she shared with a roommate, and, currently, sweet, sweet kitties named Leo Sesame and Milo Pumpkin and a little rescued pup named Teddy Bean. She, Leo, Pumpkin and Teddy Bean live in Baltimore.
