A Bo Obama greeting committee

Ah, sweet, fresh, Bo....

This one was just yesterday at the White House. President Barack Obama's daughters Sasha and Malia wait with puppy Bo as the Marine One presidential helicopter lands on the South Lawn. They wanted to greet their dad upon his return from a trip to Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Oh my! That picture of Bo, on his back, arms bent, paws floppy, is beyond cute. It's like he's smiling at the girls. I didn't know Bo could get any cuter... but he did.

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.
