Dog Scout 1st came to Walz's family - Sept. 2019 - video at link

https://www.startribune.com/meet-scout-gov-tim-walz-s-new-dog/559520102


It was fun to come across this video, so I thought to share it with fellow animal lovers on DU.
Typical puppy is eating the garden and starting to dig a hole in the garden.


Scout is part lab and part shepherd.
Birthday would have been June 2019 making him now 5 years old.

Pitbull mixes are fantastic dogs that are too often overlooked at shelters, as are black dogs.

What a wonderful addition to the family!

She is Pit Bull/German Shepherd/White Swiss Shepard. Wonderful dog, social, and intelligent. She looks like Scout Walz only honey colored. She turned six last July 10.

The way that young man is holding his new best friend reminds me of
getting a lab pup for my son @ that age.

A lab, pit, and 8 other thing mix. But mine is a girl.

Tim gets better and better. Even his kids are normal dog-lovers, not creepy assholes.
