Higgins has brought Izak to meet several of the Republican presidential candidates before the pair landed on Huntsman.

"I had to work hard to get the support of the goat," Huntsman joked to reporters yesterday in Concord, according to a video Paul E. Talbot uploaded to the Huffington Post's Off the Bus page.
