WASHINGTON - Former President Barack Obama s dog Bo died Saturday after a battle with cancer, the Obamas said on social media.
News of Bo s passing was shared by Obama and his wife, Michelle, on Instagram, where both expressed sorrow at the passing of a dog the former president described as a true friend and loyal companion. He tolerated all the fuss that came with being in the White House, had a big bark but no bite, loved to jump in the pool in the summer, was unflappable with children, lived for scraps around the dinner table, and had great hair, Barack Obama wrote.
Former President Obama on Saturday announced that his family’s first White House dog, Bo, has died.
“Today our family lost a true friend and loyal companion. For more than a decade, Bo was a constant, gentle presence in our lives happy to see us on our good days, our bad days, and everyday in between,” Obama tweeted.
