Booker T. Thomas, a Marine and district director for Councilmember Charlie Lauersdorf, has always had a soft spot for underdogs, particularly those of the four-legged variety. Growing up in an animal-loving household, Thomas was surrounded by dogs of various breeds. "Growing up, we always had dogs and we always had big dogs, like pit bulls and Rottweilers," said Thomas, who joined the City of Fort Worth in 2023. "But they were always extremely sweet and gentle and really just terribly overgrown lapdogs."
