LOUISIANA





This week, Lucy the WonderSock went to visit her friends Annie and Kristin in Louisiana! She had so much fun touring around. Lucy got the chance to sun herself along the banks of the great Mississippi river and work on her tan. Then she met up with a Mardi Gras indian named Wild Tchoupitoulas of the Wild Magnolias, and he named Lucy "Wild Headband!" Later she got to hang out and catch a ride on one of the carriage mules in the French Quarters, and soak up some more rays by a fun fountain. (someone get that girl some sunscreen!) Finally, Lucy met up with some street musicians for a quick jam session before chatting with them about the negative effects of BSL and asking for their support! Now, Lucy is on her way to California to soak up some more sun (seriously. sunscreen.) and hang out with her west coast friends! Thank you Kristin and Annie for taking Lucy this week!

FLORIDA- Pensacola






   
Lucy had a crazy fun filled week with one of her best buddies Frankie and his mommy, Teresa! (check out Frankie on facebook at:  http://www.facebook.com/Frankieimalovernotafighter?ref=ts) First, Lucy was able to attend a Mardi Gras parade where she earned lots of beads, made new friends, and helped her friends Frankie and Hawk educate people about how much fun "tough" dog breeds can be! She even got her own Mardi Gras mask (pink of course!) to wear in the parade. Then, she took a trip to the beach to soak up some rays and check out the surf! She visited the haunted Pensacola lighthouse, and then headed to the Naval Air Station Museum to tour! The sign said "No Pets" but did that stop her? NO WAY!! As it turns out, nobody can resist the cuteness of Lucy the WonderSock, not even the military. She got to see many planes, space modules, a hot air balloon, and a rescue pod! She even got to sit in a Blue Angels cockpit! Lots of people asked about the little Sock Dog hanging out in the museum, and it was a great opportunity to educate people about Lucy's mission to end BSL! Thank you Teresa and Frankie for showing Lucy such a WONDERBULL time in Pensacola and helping advocate for misunderstood breeds! Next week, Lucy will be visiting beautiful Louisiana, so stay tuned!
