Big Ben the Beagle🐶

Ben the Beagle, a stray dog found wandering the streets of San Antonio in April 2016, was rescued by Animal Care Services in a severely malnourished state covered in mange. After receiving medical treatment, he was transported to New York by Rescue Dogs Rock NYC, where Eric and Lara Trump—avid supporters of the #AdoptDontShop movement—agreed to foster him. By August 2016, the couple had officially adopted Ben, who quickly became a social media star through photos of his adventures, from posing at the Washington Monument to playing in Aspen snow and enjoying his first New York City train ride, now living a happy, spoiled life as part of the Trump family.
