The Honorable Judge Roy Bean would like everyone to know that he is a very important man. He would also like to be picked up and given a kiss.

Named after Judge Roy Bean, the once beloved Bristol establishment that so many Rhode Islanders remember.

And we have a photographic mystery on our hands. WHY DOES THIS DOG LOOK ABSOLUTELY ENORMOUS IN EVERY SINGLE PICTURE?! Seriously. Every photo makes him look like a 90 pound grown man who has been presiding over Superior Court since 1987. And then you look down. SIR. WHERE IS THE REST OF YOU?!

He’s a perfectly adorable, pint sized little gentleman with the biggest heart and an overwhelming desire to climb into your arms and give you the softest kisses. Not aggressive kisses. Not an unsolicited full face tongue bath. Just sweet little kisses from a boy who thinks everyone deserves a little love.

Judge LOVES going for walks, exploring the world, and meeting new people. EVERYONE MUST MEET THE JUDGE. Apparently, he’s campaigning for reelection. We haven’t figured out what office he holds, but his platform is simple: More walks. More kisses. More snacks. HE HAS OUR VOTE.

He’s also wonderful with other dogs and has such a sweet, affectionate personality. HE IS A HAPPY LITTLE BOY WHO WANTS NOTHING MORE THAN TO BE SOMEONE’S BABY.
