    In reply to Puppy Love
    Maybe this was dumb of me, but I'm (happily!) surprised that Bo is allowed all over the House. I guess I sort of thought that White House pets weren't like regular pets and were maybe relegated to certain areas only. As I said, I am happy to learn that my assumption was wrong. It's nice that the First Dog is still a real part of the family, like any regular pet. I just got back from my house; I go home every day around lunchtime to let him out to pee and all, and now I want to go back home so I can smell his delicious ears some more. I don't know why, but the smell of dog ears is like a narcotic to me. #barackobama

    @Aesop's Foibles. YES.: I'm the same, but with dog paws. I love the corn chip smell, which is probably gross to non-dog owners (and probably some dog owners... I'm just a freak!) #barackobama

    @midwestdesigner: Our fella is usually pretty presentable. We get him bathed once every month, and he's mainly inside so he never smells bad. His ears have a very comforting sort of dusty smell. I'm not sure what it is; his neck-fur smells especially good too, but in a different way. His ears are the best. #barackobama

    @Aesop's Foibles. YES.: OH OH! I know the answer. And it's actually kind of gross, so it may ruin the smell for you (it didn't for me but once again.. I'm a freak). So read this article ONLY if you MUST know.

    @midwestdesigner: I only really notice my dogs ears smelling when they have an infection (one of my dog gets them quite a bit). But I like the neck smell when they're sleeping. I don't even know if it's emanating from their necks but its something about a sleeping dog smell. #barackobama

    @thecameralovesyou: Oh man, we had a puppy for a week (ugh long story) and I was cuddling him on our bed when I decided to sniff his paws. It was NOT corn chip-y in nature at all. It burned my nostrils and I sat up gagging. The pup was like "what? that's just my natural funk, baby, get used to it." Seriously, he had that exact look on his face. #barackobama

    @thecameralovesyou: I've got a beagle, so her ears get stinky before the rest of her does (she's indoors, as well, but those floppy ears just collect dirt!). But, if your dog's ears smell like my dog's neck, then I understand the love.

    And because you said it's gross ... I can't read it. I just can't. I love that smell too much to have it tainted by knowledge of something gross!

    But you should forward it to dooce. She's the one that first made me realize it was Fritos that I was smelling. #barackobama

    @thecameralovesyou: Oh, that's not too bad. I think the grossest thing about dogs is the butt-glands. I'd never had a dog growing up, only cats, and boy was the butt-gland thing a nasty surprise. I think you may know what I'm referring to. The funny thing is, no dog owner I've ever known has ever mentioned this. It's almost like they're afraid to admit something so utterly disgusting. But hey! I love our dog very much anyway. I just don't love his occasionally very smelly ass. Or his lethal farts. Oh my God are dogfarts bad. It's like otherwordly, or something. #barackobama

    @midwestdesigner: well if you have the strong love for it like i do, then the article won't change your mind. I still get my nose right in there. I also drape myself on them when they're sleeping. I can't get enough!

    Ok after all this talk, I just can't not post a picture. People prob get sick of my dog pictures but screw you hypothetical people! I have two but this is the one who has super-frito feet. #barackobama

We're disgusting people. Luckily we started feeding him all bran buds in his food and it's a very rare occurrence for it to happen now.

    @thecameralovesyou: Really?! The vet says that some dogs have really, like, active ones and they have to get them expressed by the vet techs every few weeks. I haven't subjected our dog to this, even though the one time the vet did it he didn't seem to mind. It's not all the time, and it usually only happens when he's asleep, but sometimes if he barks really suddenly it sort of sprays out. I've caught him licking it up so many times and I cannot for the life of me figure out how something that smells so bad can possibly taste good. So anyway now that you're done vomiting, maybe you could tell me where I get this bran stuff? #barackobama

    Most importantly, why was the Golden Retriever never introduced by name? What, she's just a pretty face???

    And: Woofty. She is something special. My first response was "Hey lady, I think these dogs might be responding to straight attention rather than your awesome petting, um I mean, massage techniques. Henry Wrinkler looks like he'd be down for anything." BUT, then the cynic in me dissolved when I realized that without this video, I would have had no idea how much my dog wants me to serenade him with a personalized song to the tune of Amazing Grace. Thank you, crazy dog massager! #massagetherapy
