Better listen to dad, Bo. The first pup stands still as President Obama stops to chat outside the Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse on Saturday. Are there treats involved for good behavior on this trip?

Hello up there! The Obamas look out from the top of the lighthouse on Saturday. Though Bo didn’t join them up top – even as the girls yelled down to him – he did manage to tangle a U.S. Coast Guard member in his leash!
