Obama's new dog Sunny knocks down a little girl at the White House

The Obama's younger dog is still getting used to the spotlight as it made a major faux pas during a White House ceremony Wednesday afternoon.Sunny Obama jumped up on a toddler who was a guest at the unveiling of the official Christmas decorations, pushing the little girl to the ground.The girl, later identified as Ashtyn Gardner, is one of the hundreds of children from military families who were on hand to help the First Lady display this year's decorations.A video of the encounter shows that Sunny was being held on a leash by Mrs Obama during the ordeal but that didn't stop her from knocking the girl over.There were no hard feelings- or injuries- as Sunny proceeded to lick 2-year-old Ashtyn's face as she was hugged by Mrs Obama.That wasn't the only way that Sunny ruined the event- at least in the eyes of the family's older dog.Bo had previously been the star of earlier Christmas displays, with countless versions of it's likeness scattered about the White House, but this year he had to share the spotlight with his little sister.Two life-sized replicas of the Portuguese water dogs made of satin ribbons are one of the first things an expected 70,000 White House visitors will see this month.Dark chocolate miniatures of the first pets are also part of the annual gingerbread White House display.Another highlight is the towering Blue Room tree, dedicated to military families and trimmed with photos of their joyous homecomings.Mrs. Obama says she wants Americans to never forget the debt they owe service members and their families for the sacrifices they make in serving the country.(dailymail.co.uk)ANN.Az
