Say what you will about future Sen. Jim Justice (R-Coal), that man loves Babydog.
And that dog definitely doesn't hunt. Indeed, I expect he sleeps in a sunny spot and waits for lunch while the other dogs go be sporty. 🤣
If you were worried that Babydog wouldn't get to go to Washington, Congress is HUGELY pet friendly throughout the office buildings. (Older article, no substantive rules changes)
