    A small dog on a leash, Buckets the French Bulldog
    Buckets
    Have you met Buckets, a French Bulldog Instagram star?

    Buckets is a blue pied French Bulldog, born and raised in San Diego, California. He has a big personality, and he is much more concerned with what humans are doing than what other dogs are doing. At the park, you can find him huddled around the humans, waiting for belly rubs and sniffing for treats. He was born without sections of his vertebrae and therefore has inflammatory bowel disease and scoliosis, but that doesn’t slow him down. He enjoys naps, cuddling, eating cucumbers, playing frisbee, and chasing his racquetball around the house. He is a registered Emotional Support Animal (ESA) and offers love to everyone who crosses his path.

    Starring in a book of his own, Buckets Goes on a Winter Adventure is a story of friendship and determination, and will encourage readers of all ages to explore the mysteries of the world around them.

      I love dogs – mine was adopted from the PA Boxer Rescue and I volunteer at our local animal shelter. If I win I would read it and then donate it to my local library where serve on the Board. We have a K-Pets reading program to help kids learn to read by practicing reading out loud to a encouraging dog, which we hope to start up again soon.
