~ Chance's opinion on Shadow. Shadow was an old golden retriever and the main protagonist in the 1993 Disney film, Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey. He was one of the many heroes amongst dogs in its sequel Homeward Bound II: Lost in San Francisco. In the films, since he is a dog, he cannot speak but can through the mind as well as all other dogs and cats in both films.
The current First Puppy is Portuguese water dog Bo, who was a fulfilled campaign promise to the President's daughters Malia and Sasha Obama. The pooch has called The White House home since April 2009 after he was given as a gift from Senator Ted Kennedy and his wife, Victoria.he First Pets that have roamed the White House grounds over the years are far from your average cats and dogs. President Obama's portuguese water dog is the latest furry companion following a long line of unusual creatures, including black bears, billy goats, lions, pigs, tigers and an alligator.
