Hail to the Chief Dog

Dear world,
One of my birthday presents was Bo, a stuffed toy version of President Obama's dog. It got me to thinking what it must be like to be First Dog. So I decided to read the whole First Dogs book. It was fascinating. So many presidents had dogs but only one had a Golden Retriever - that was President Ford's dog named Liberty. She even had little First Puppies. Isn't it nice that there have been two top dogs in the White House throughout most of US history -- one with two legs and one with four. Hail to the Chiefs.
Love always,
Bear

  3. Yes Fernando, it was the same book. But I only got to hear a little. It was so interesting that I just had to read the whole book. You're so nice. If I am first dog in your book, I would love to read your book too.

  5. Mom better not get me one of those Bo dogs because when I destroy it (and you all know I will), the Secret Service will probably have to come and get me.

  9. Mom wouldn't buy me a Bo stuffie. She was afraid that when destroyed it (like we all know I will) the Secret Service might come and take me away.
