Until the announcement on April 11, 2009 about the breed of dog that President Obama and his family were to welcome into the White House, little was known about the Portuguese Water Dog.
Yet the fact that Bo (as he became known) is now ensconced in the White House is something just short of a miracle. Behind the shaggy good looks of the Portuguese Water Dog there lies a remarkable story of species survival. By the 1930s the dog was on the verge of extinction.
