Someone please put this 'Game of Bones' bulldog in charge of Westeros

Westeros has had a little trouble finding a good ruler, so we'd like to make a suggestion.

Buford the bulldog, perched atop his dog-friendly throne, graced attendees at the Tompkins Square Park Halloween Dog Parade in New York on Saturday.

Buford, a good dog, remained still throughout the costume competition -- evidence of his even, kingly temper. He was regal. He was stately. And you can just tell he has a foolproof plan to defeat the White Walkers.

"I think he'd be a good king," Buford's owner told Mashable.

We agree.
