The late celebrity Bulldog gained popularity in political circles and has even appeared with McMaster in his campaign ads.

Gov. McMaster loved Boots so much he even had his own spot in his office when he was still the lieutenant governor. When he ascended to the governor’s office, Boots came with him. Before McMaster was sworn in as governor, he assured everyone that the Bulldog wouldn’t be a distraction in the State House.

People from in and out of South Carolina have shared their condolences with the governor and his family.

Rest in peace, Boots.
