How many of the democratic candidates still in the race have pets?

[IrishEyes]

I know Biden, Warren and Buttigieg have adorable dogs. Do any of the others have pets?

I know that it does not matter but I was curious.

1. I believe Klobuchar also has a dog.

[Doreen]

2. Though of very little importance

It also shows that those who have animals are more compassionate than not.

7. I found that to usually be the case

and maybe of more importance than we think.

14. Then again Putin loves dogs and

got upset when some people were hanging a puppy by the scruff. It makes you wonder sometimes. I did say more often than not though.

16. Don't think so. There are a lot of repugs who love their dogs as much as we do our dogs.

They also love their children. Neither is a direct correlation to having empathy.

3. Klobuchar, Sanders, Bloomberg do not currently (at least not a dog)

Klobuchar and Sanders have owned dogs in the past. Bloomberg not so, it appears. Nor Gabbard (fortunately, from my point of view).

9. Someone working at a fairly high level (apparently) on the Bloomberg campaign says

he has a dog.

I was asking about whether or not he was a good, decent person and his/her answer was, "He has a dog. What's not to like?" A bit superficial, but I'm offering it for what it's worth.

4. tRump has a gerbil named Lindsey.

[IrishEyes]

5. That is so insulting

to gerbils.

I really can't stand Lindsey Graham.

[DBoon]

8. trump has a pet

if a"toady" is considered a pet

[Doreen]

15. Please do not insult gerbils or any other animal.

Snakes have more class.

6. Yesterday, on a thread about Bloomberg, someone working for his campaign told

me Bloomberg has a dog, but I haven't tried to verify it.

I'm about a quarter of the way through "The Many Lives of Michael Bloomberg" and maybe it will be mentioned at some point if he's a dog lover, since this book gets into the minutiae.

10. A dog knows

[Mike 03]

13. You're damn right

[handmade34]

11. we have learned our lesson

NO one can be elected unless they have a pet!!!

I met Bo in person and the White House has not been the same since

[IrishEyes]

12. Congratulations on meeting such an adorable celebrity.

I always liked Bo. Watching President Obama and his family playing with Bo was cute.
