While the 20-plus inches of snow that fell in Washington, D.C., over the weekend may have kept people inside, it wasn't enough to deter Sunny and Bo Obama from frolicking outside of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

The White House released a short clip on Sunday showing the First Dogs playing in the snow (they were leashed, so they weren't able to go too crazy), as well as some photos of the pups covered in the white stuff. Maybe they're actually Portuguese Snow Dogs?
