mayor

We can all agree that 2020 has been a strange year to say the least. All the way back in January when we thought world war 3 was going to break out to now a pandemic, and of course, politics. It feels like every day, we're confronted with different political scandals and stories, and sometimes we wish we could just... turn off the news without them following us. Today, in our animal world on Cheezburger, we are celebrating a special holiday - Dog in Politics Day.

We know, we know, more politics?! But this is special, we promise. Dogs in politics is something incredibly special and heartwarming, and elected dog mayors are even more adorable than most. On top of that, they are the easiest candidates ever to pick. I mean... they may get a little dictatorial and make all of us give them treats and rub their bellies endlessly, but their commands are ones we are more than happy to fulfill. 

So, on this special day, we are showcasing all of the dogs in the US who have been elected mayors - dogs who spend their lives serving the American public and making sure that all of our lives are rebarkable!

And they say all politicians are corrupt! Maximus Mighty Dog Mueller II is definitely the purest and goodest boy for the job! Idyllwild of California, here we come! 

The mayor of Attleboro, Massachusetts, embarked on a 12-day road trip across the US and Canada with his dog Mura after she was diagnosed with terminal blood cancer. The pair ventured all the way to Vancouver, where Mura was born. 

A small town in Michigan, Omena, recently did the best thing ever. They elected a sweet adorable cat named Sweet Tart as their mayor. That's right, MAYOR! But wait, all the entrants were animals! But all in all the town stuck with the cute feline because CATS RULE!

This headline would probably won't be interesting unless the mayor just happens to be a dog

He's so much more than "pizza dog".
