Another rainy day travel shoutout goes to Angelique, our foster coordinator, who braved the torrential downpour ⛈️ to transport little Lucy!!
Lucy has been in a temporary foster home while we monitored her for any aggressive behavior. So far, Lucy has made the acquaintance of at least 15 pugs; eaten with them, slept with them, shared toys with them, etc. We have not seen her show aggression toward the other pugs, and she made huge progress with the humans, too, letting them pet her and, most recently, not running when they tried to pick her up and put her on the bed at night. 😍 During Angelique’s Formula 1 lap 🏎️ around the great state of Georgia, in the pouring rain, no less, she encountered something unexpected. 😳➡️ Atlanta drivers were struggling to drive in the rain!! They were slipping and sliding like they were crossing Antartica instead of rolling down 285. 🤷🏼♀️ When the inevitable fender bender happened, and there was bumper-to-bumper traffic for miles… well, we have censored that part of the story for language. 😜😆🤣
We know this all seems farfetched, because Atlantans are known for their superb driving skills, especially during inclement weather. Paired with the fact that there’s hardly ever traffic on 285, we get it. Mind. BLOWN. 🤯 (AI must have written it!! 😜)
Fortunately, Angelique made it to her destination(s) safely and Lucy is getting settled in at her foster home. We appreciate Angelique’s unwavering bravery in the face of driving in Atlanta in the rain. She deserves a medal.🥇Thank you to Jen for fostering little Lucy. ❤️
