What does "one dog's propably enough" mean?

Does it mean "one watchdog/superviser is probably enough"?

Context:

Sasha and Malia -- (cheers, applause) -- before our very eyes, you're growing up to become two strong, smart, beautiful young women, just like your mom. (Cheers, applause.) And I am so proud of you guys. But I will say that for now, one dog's probably enough. (Laughter.)

No. There was considerable news coverage of the Obama girls getting the special gift of a pet dog when their father was elected in 2008. He is joking that they do not get a second one simply because he was re-elected.
