“Today our family has lost a true friend and a faithful companion.” With these words, the former American president Barack Obama greeted his dog Bo with a Twitter post, adopted by Barack and Michelle in April 2009 to make his daughters Malia and Sasha happy.
“For more than a decade – writes Obama – Bo has been a constant and kind presence in our life, happy to see us in our good days, bad days and all the others”. Patient, “he tolerated all the clamor of the White House, barking, but never biting.” “He loved diving into the swimming pool in the summer, was amiable with children and was passionate about what fell off the table at dinner.” “It was exactly what we needed and more than we expected, we will miss it very much,” concludes the former president, posting a photo of him from behind in a corridor of the White House with his Bo at his side.
