@goldensrbest  I have had all sorts of dogs throughout my life and my all time favorite is the Golden.

 

They have the sweetest temperament and are just the best. Smiley Happy

If you look closely, his little chest looks like he's wearing a bow tie.

@goldensrbest -

Objectively speaking of course, right?😄

They are such sweet dogs.

@qvcfreak You are right! I can't not see it now.

Bo and Sunny are just the cutest. I remember Barney and Miss Beazley and their adorable videos. I think the Bushes have a dog now, a larger breed.

DH still has a little bumper sticker on his car with a picture of Bo that says “I bark for Barack” lol.

Not to be forgotten, Sully.  He did not serve in the WH,

but is in our hearts.

 

Now serving at Walter Reed...I think.

 

Labradors are the BEST!

 

Good Boy, Sully 💙💙💙 !

President Gerald R. Ford acquired Liberty, a Golden Retriever, as a puppy in the fall of 1974. She grew up in the White House and even gave birth to her first litter of puppies there.

@MorningLover   Thank you for sharing this.  I had totally forgotten that President Ford had a Golden.

@Porcelain  Thanks for posting.  Nice to see pets in the WH again. I live seeing them in the news and needed. I hope there are no more injury reports  for President Biden or others.  I heard Queen Elizabeth is not having more Corgis as said they tend to get under your feet.  

 

I have a Dog Park couple  friends who are in their late 70s whose seven mo. Yellow Lab who  broke her foot on one leg, and the the ankle on the other. I have Labs and when they  can pull hard on the leash after an animal. I  have been downed many times and lucky not hurt.
