New Addition to the Obamas'

The Obama family has settled on a first pet, a 6 month old Portuguese water dog that the their daughters named "Bo". It was one of the White House's most tightly kept secrets. President Obama's daughters Malia, who is 10 years old and Sasha who is 7 years old chose a black and white pup. A White House official spoke to the Associated Press saturday night and said the dog was a gift from Senator Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., who owns several Portuguese water dogs himself.Kennedy stated "we love our Portuguese water dogs and know that the girls and their parents will love theirs, too." Bo has made an impact on the family so far and has brought smiles to both Malia and Sasha.

Clarification: What made the Obama's choose a Portuguese water dog out of any other pet?
