Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks said in an email Tuesday that “no decisions have been made” about the dog. But Pope said she is confident that the Trumps will take the puppy, which she named Patton after George Patton, a World War II general Trump has said he admires.

No mice problem when you have a snake !

[Salamander]

Patton's actual dog

[Salamander]

Wanna bet?

All my useless eaters are in secure houses and the mice run through the walls of this 300 year old log house.

:D

My black snake has been found under kitchen sink - on the fireplace mantle - waiting at door. When you live in a barn they come and go at will. Have no idea how she gets in, but it was her domicile before it was mine. She keeps the rattle snakes away too😬

Create a new breed. Call it a Trump-A-Doodle!

They should get Barron a Czechoslovakian wolf dog in honor of his mother's heritage. A German Shepherd or a Scottish deerhound (Dad's ancestry) would be good too.

[Salamander]

Aw!
Lucky you!

I had one like that, that I named Slinky.
He would curl around my ankles when I was doing my nails, after a shower, in the upstairs bathroom.

The guy up on the ridge intentionally ran him over, one spring, while Slinky was warming himself up in my lane.

Another showed up later and used to sit in the maple tree by the bathroom window and watch me.
I called him “Tom”.

Huh.

I’m starting to think blacksnakes might be pervs.

:D

Bet this White House dog will be loved and not just a photo prop.

[Salamander]

We have better ideas than the Doodle People do.

;D

[Salamander]

But how will you get a Dire Wolf to stand still while the Poodle breeds it?

[Sacajaweau]

Definitely a cutie. Yeh....looks custom made for Barron.

[silverleaf]

For the boy’s sake, I hope this happens

[Salamander]

Amen!

[who gets the Obama dogs, now that they’re done with them?]

I used to have a cat named Sherman (yes, after the tank). Ran into me more than once and sent me flying.

I won’t trust DJT completely, until he gets a dog.

There was a rumor he had a yellow Lab [fake news]:

Glue traps.

The cat does hunt and the Akita, too, but glue traps do the best job. My house is 200 years newer than yours, so our mice are more upscale: they steal bait from snap traps and avoid those enclosed thingies.

Glue traps, though, work really well.

[Bronzy]

That is a good question. “Who gets the Obama dogs...”?

[Salamander]

God, I hope it’s not a chef...

[Daffynition]

Giving them back to Teddie Kennedy.

[McGruff]

It all makes sense now
