He seems to enjoy going (he loves the car ride) and although he's always a bit nervous, he does pretty well. It's a fun outing for us to do together. And, it's one of the rare times he doesn't care that I shoot photos of him. He is too distracted with his surroundings.
I had purchased a new shirt for him that said "Dude, your wife keeps checking me out" and it looked large enough when I was at the store, but it turned out to be way too small when I tried to put it on him. So, it was a ten dollar bust. I ended up putting a shirt on him from last spring that says "I like bacon on my bacon". No one seemed to remember it from last time so I got away with recycling a previously worn item.
I'll start this photo set with some pictures I shot of a few of the other dogs in the show (all the other dogs are up for adoption from the Humane Society Of Southern Arizona, I had the only dog that already had a home):

| That is the rear view of Martha Vasquez, former anchor for KVOA Channel 4. She was fired from her job after getting arrested for shoplifting a handful of years ago and was recently on NBC's Today Show talking about how she's dealt with the issue. At this event, she had a vendor table and was selling something. I probably should have asked to take a picture of the front side of her table but that wouldn't be as sneaky. |

 |
| Well hello Mr. Happy |
 |
| The shadow of Lucky's head looks like a slice of pizza |
 |
| I put out of a bowl of water for Lucky and he didn't want any. No, you're not getting Perrier because you didn't put it in your tour rider. |
 |
| I shot a photo of Gabe shooting a photo of anchor Stella Inger chatting with a KGUN viewer. |
 |
| Samantha was live on Periscope showing the weather selfie wall while Stephanie did the honors as photographer. |

| How Lucky sees the world as seen from behind his head |
 |
| Lucky looks contemplative. He's probably trying to decide who to vote for in the upcoming Presidential primary. I don't have the heart to tell him that dogs aren't allowed to vote. |
