Why Obama's dog has curly hair
University of Utah researchers used data from Portuguese water dogs -- the breed of President Barack Obama's dog Bo -- to help find a gene that gives some dogs curly hair and others long, wavy hair. It was part of a National Institutes of Health study -- published online Thursday, Aug. 27, by the journal Science -- showing that variations in only three genes account for the seven major types of coat seen in purebred dogs.
