Default Some days at the Doggie Doo Run Run, politics takes precedence over the dogs.

I don't understand why being either (or other) is any more of a concern than anywhere else. Do people really sit around and discuss their political concerns that much? I'd rather talk about you or your issues or your golf game or your grandchildren or what fun TV thing we are going to do next.
There is sometimes a lot of barking about politics at the Doggie Doo Run Run. On these days, you would often find the Democrats under one shelter and the Republicans under another with the various Independents shuttling back and forth from tent to tent like some kind of shuttlecock.

Some of these dog owners were very active in local politics too.
