The first dog in Minnesota?! What did they do before that? Everyone out walking their porcupines / large lizards / capybara in the park? What? How did they not import dogs from the next state?!
The first dog in Minnesota?! What did they do before that
Moose, elk, and hockey players. Also a few stray Wisconsinites.
I like this dude more with each article I see. 💙
You know what?
Did you read this?
I can’t wait to hear the “how dare he help someone in medical distress while he’s supposed to be campaigning!” screams from the right.
He’s robbing our poor, starved healthcare system of revenue that is rightly theirs!
Right? Where was this 10 years ago?
This feels like the wholesome Democrat version of the Maga cult.Tim Walz is the person who actually cares about rural folks that Trump was pretending to be. Of course Walz is known for helping regular middle class folk by primiting green energy, while Trump focused on the coal miners who are small in number who were clinging to a dying pollution causing fossil fuel undustry.
“Look how horrible this man is! What an awful man!” - GOP
Literally every single thing I’ve learned about Tim Walz has been super uplifting.
His dog is named Scout, and his daily driver car is an International Harvest Scout… Coincidence?
i feel like it’s obligatory to share this also: https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/politics/article/donald-trump-dogs
lots of people don’t call themselves “dog people,” and some are even afraid of them. but it’s a huge red flag and sus as fuck when i find out someone actively hates dogs. or cats. what kind of weird psycho attitude is that?
TBF I’ll bet dogs fucking hate him and he’s just responding to that. Dogs can usually tell a creepy weirdo.
I’d bet even mosquitoes don’t want to be anywhere near him.
I can understand people not liking dogs. I can’t understand people who hate dogs.
I really can’t understand people who are universally hated by dogs. And cats. Cats don’t like trump either.
Like. What kind of foul, loathsome shitstain-on-the-universe do you have to be, for not a single golden retriever to accept you?
Lots of evil people have pets that love them. Here’s Blondi, Hitler’s dog. So it really says something that Trump apparently doesn’t register as a human to animals.
I don’t like cats. But I’m severely allergic so it’s too be expected. I mainly dislike cat owners who let their cats roam.
I bet cats like you though. They seem to be attracted to allergic people.
I love cats but I too dislike people who let their cats roam. Cats are perfectly capable of getting enough exercise indoors, due to their use of vertical space, and they become an invasive species when they’re feral or roaming. I support TNR programs because leaving neutered ferals in place keeps from opening a niche for more breeding cats, and because they aren’t really adoptable. Although some can be given rodent-control jobs on farms and the like. That’s outdoors but it’s not the same as roaming around the city.
Here’s the time that Scout managed to get himself locked inside a room in the governor’s mansion and the fire department needed to come rescue him. https://www.today.com/pets/minnesota-governor-dog-locked-bedroom-rcna122484
Aww. Poor Scout. We have to keep our big dog out of the kitchen with a gate so our little dog can eat his food before the big one eats it (he has a hole he can go through), but occasionally we forget we let her into the kitchen. 20 minutes later, we’ll see her silently standing by the gate, patiently waiting to be let out.
that picture of the dog 🥰
Damn, Walz feels like the first human being up for office in I don’t know how long. IMO Sanders was pretty real, but he has a lot of institutional weight and history behind him. I thought Fetterman was close, but he’s not who we thought he was going to be. There may have been others I can’t think of off the top of my head, but they just didn’t make an impression.
I’m sure the press has a lot to do with what we see of Walz, but everything I’m seeing so far really just makes him seem like “one of us”. Literally taking care of the average person, having a rescue dog and not some breed ans a statement, etc.
As a Minnesotan I just have to say that I am so fucking happy that you all are giving him this reception. I was woried that when he got this position people would seem him as just some flyover state grandpa nobody cared about.
But you all seem to love him as much as we have here and it really gives me so much hope for this country. Like literally brings a tear to my eye.
My opinion as a german probably doesn’t really matter, but this guy as well as Kamala are giving me hope again that the world might not have gone completely mad. Also if this works out for you guys I hope the german party system is paying attention.
Pretty dog, now get a breakaway collar on it
a shoulder harness can save their trachea.
Harness for walks, collar for ID.
That’s what I do. She still wears the martingale and I suppose if she is being a dick I could hook up to that, but I have a nice 3 point harness with a handle so if she gets in to trouble I can just pick her up like a suitcase 🤣
She hates when I do that of course
Really happy that Minnesota got their first dog.
More people should know about dogs.
785/10. Would pet.
