CHARLESTON, W.Va. — West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice’s English bulldog is getting her own bobblehead.

The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum in Milwaukee announced plans Friday for a bobblehead doll for the 60-pound Babydog. It comes after her appearance on stage with the governor at the Republican National Convention in the city on Tuesday night.

“Already popular among West Virginians, Babydog added many more people to her growing fan club with her appearance at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee,” museum co-founder and CEO Phil Sklar said in a statement. “This bobblehead will be a must-have for fans of Babydog!”

It will be available in December and the museum said it is accepting preorders for the 2,024 bobbleheads.
