On Friday, JD Vance hit the campaign trail in Milwaukee, introducing his family’s four-legged friend as he tours as former President Trump’s vice presidential running mate.

Atlas, a German Shepherd, energetically jumped up the stairs of a Trump campaign plane despite the rainy weather.

“Atlas had a great time on the campaign trail today and, unlike Kamala, enjoyed meeting the press on the plane!” Vance spokeswoman Taylor Van Kirk said in an exclusive comment to Fox News Digital.

Vance says he does not believe Trump “needs to change his mind” and praises his “unpredictable nature”

Vance’s wife Usha also accompanied her husband and their dog to the campaign trail in Milwaukee on Friday.

Vance made fun of his dog in a post about a video on X that now has over 10,000 likes.

“You can’t really tell in this video, but he was *not happy* about the wet metal stairs. He’s fine on the plane, though,” Vance said.

“We had two German Shepherds and they both do this: They look for the person who doesn’t like dogs and suck up to them.”

Atlas’ eventful day did not end with boarding the Trump plane. The flight made an emergency landing in Milwaukee shortly afterwards.

“The pilot reported that there was a door seal malfunction,” said Vance spokeswoman Taylor Van Kirk. “After the emergency was declared, Trump Force Two returned to Milwaukee.”

“Once the issue was resolved, the aircraft returned to its originally scheduled flight path back to Cincinnati.”
