We need to talk about Arnold Schwarzenegger taking his donkey to work

Arnold Schwarzenegger and his donkey is a friendship as old as time – it’s a glorious sight to behold, we’re not going to lie.

While you may anticipate one of the most hardcore action movie heroes of our time to not be getting about with a small animal, but, we don’t know, counting a snake as his pet of choice, or a gorilla, instead Arnie spends his time doting on a pet donkey LuLu and a miniature pony Whiskey.

We kid you not.

Sharing a video to Instagram this week, the Terminator himself delighted fans when he was seen leading little LuLu into the office on a pretty lilac leash.

The 72-year-old film star looks quite a home with the small animals, as his two four-legged friends made themselves well at home in the pet-friendly office, eating his meals, chatting with his colleagues.

We wonder how they go at filing and photo-copying as well. [Insert joke here about LuLu making an ass of herself…]

Fans thought it was simply brilliant as they reacted to the social media post on Wednesday, with one asking the serious questions: ‘Okay but how much can LuLu deadlift?’

Another fairly pointed out: ‘I guess if I were loaded I’d have a horse in my office too.’

While Arnold’s son Patrick Schwarzenegger shared a bunch of laughing emojis – we’re right there with you Patrick!

It’s not the first time he’d taken his mates to work with him, evidently not able to bear leaving his pets at home while he sweated on the 9-5 grind, captioning the sweet video that was a follow up to Whiskey’s workplace adventures: ‘This time I brought LuLu too.’

Oh and can we please talk about how Arnie sets the adorable clip to Queen’s You’re My Best Friend? Quite apt, really.

In the clip the actor got to working with some delicious treats on his desk, so it wasn’t long before LuLu and Whiskey sniffed out the sugar and wanted a treat, interrupting a giggling Arnie who was probably trying awfully hard to make some big Hollywood deals.

Sure in another world we’d be taking in the swish interior of Arnold’s swanky office but we really cannot take our eyes off the distracted mayhem of having two adorable animals running riot in an office.

Therapy horses are a thing, right? We feel like every workplace could benefit from having a LuLu and a Whiskey around to ease the day-to-day stresses.

Back in December, Arnie delighted us all with his office pursuits as he lead Whiskey into the lift at work.

He wrote: ‘Friday feeling at my pet friendly office.’

Oh Arnold when it comes to your Instagram feed and all this glorious equine goodness – we’ll be back.
