First Lady Michelle Obama has appeared on the following late night shows: Fallon, Leno, Letterman and Colbert, and now you can catch her on the Puppy Bowl. The Puppy Bowl is Animal Planet’s four legged version of the Super Bowl. Obama hosted a “training camp” at the White House, attended by first dogs Bo and Sunny, a few first- and second-graders from D.C.’s Harriet Tubman Elementary School and 13 cute shelter puppies.
First dogs Bo and Sunny gathered the pups up for practice on the White House Lawn to run through a few tire and tackle drills. The puppies also honed their chew toy skills and played go fetch with the kids, and the little darlings took the required water break with the First Lady and later it was nap time.
The event is part of the first lady’s “Let’s Move,” program designated to help fight childhood obesity, and encouraged playing with canine friends as a fun way for our young people to stay active and healthy. The First Lady stated, “It was so much fun to see the Puppy Bowl X Team work out at the White House.” Puppy Bowl X airs from 3 to 5 p.m. ET Super Bowl Sunday.
