This past Monday, the White House announced that the Obamas had welcomed a new family member: a Portuguese water dog pup.

The pooch is merely one year old, E! Online says. Her name is Sunny, and she was born in Michigan in June 2012.

By the looks of it, Bo isn't in the least upset about the fact that he must now share his home with a new arrival. On the contrary, the two are getting along great.

Check out the video below to see the two pooches play in the grass and chase after one another.

As explained on the White House's official blog, the Obamas' new pet has a “cheerful personality.”

What's more, she is “full of energy and very affectionate.” Hence the decision to call her Sunny.

To honor Sunny and the fact that she is now a part of their lives, the Obamas are to make a donation to the Washington Humane Society.
