The Obamas have a new and adorable addition to their family. On August 19th, a female puppy named Sunny was welcomed into the White House. Sunny was born in the summer of last year in Michigan.

Classified as a Portuguese Water Dog, her coat is hypoallergenic, meaning Sunny won’t trigger the first daughter Malia's allergies. Sunny is the same breed as the Obama’s other family dog - Bo.

Sunny is slightly smaller and completely black while Bo showcases some white fur on the chest and paws. Bo previously attended many White House events and outings including visiting Walter Reed and the Children’s National Medical Center. However last year, Michelle Obama told reporters that she was scheduling Doggie Play Dates for Bo because he wasn’t getting enough canine interaction.

That may have brought on the family’s decision to bring in a full time playmate. Official photos from the White House show the two pooches running around and playing on the grass.

They can also be seen lounging next to one another so it appears the dogs have taken well to each other. The Obamas will be making a donation to the Washington Humane Society in honor of their new pet, Sunny.
