Just 12 photos of Michael D with his dogs Bród and Shadow

“Just resting the head here.”

THIS WEEK, ONE of the most viral images across the internet was Finnish President Sauli Niinistö and his smiling dog Lennu.

Look at them there – Lennu staring out the camera with a big grin on his face:

But two political dogs that have never gone anywhere near as viral live in Áras an Uachtaráin – Michael D’s two Bernese Mountain dogs named Bród and Shadow.

1. And there is plenty of lovable photographic evidence of the President with his two pups
