MILWAUKEE (SPECTRUM NEWS)— The Milwaukee Bucks bring in dozens of furry fans for the Eastern Conference Finals.
It's obvious that there are thousands of Bucks fans out here to support the team, but what about the furry fans? We stopped to talk to some fans to find out why they brought their dogs out here to Fiserv Forum,"
The pups are here for the fun and games too this post season. There is no shortage of four legged fans throughout the deer district cheering on the boys in green. For some puppy parents, it's important to instill the value of being a bucks fan from a young age.
"She's about 10 weeks old and weighs about five pounds," Dog Mom, Kaitlin Rickard said.
But don't be fooled, this sweet little 10 week old puppy named Rose is actually attending her second game as a Bucks fan.
"We ordered her a jersey but unfortunately it didn't come in time so we are a little bummed about that but she will definitely be a big bucks fan," Rickard said.
However, Rose isn't the only bucks fan with four legs who is panting with excitement
"He's a huge bucks fan, absolutely, look at him... He loves them," Dog Mom, Cora Sosa said.
Canelo, the mini golden doodle is sporting his very own Bucks jersey to help cheer the team to victory.
"I think he looks really cute. It looks really cute and everyone is kind of like oh my gosh, I need to get my dog one," Sosa said.
But besides the cuteness factor of all these pups, the real reason these furry fans are barking for the bucks is so they can spend some time with their owners.
"I think that it is just a nice time to spend with your animal, just to be outside and the weather is really nice. It's dog friendly so we were just about to go sit down and grab some beer and some food and spend time with our little dogs," Sosa said.
So should we thank these golden doodles and retrievers now for being a good luck charm?
"That's why they've been winning. Every game they've won he's had their jersey on. So he's their golden good luck charm," Dog Mom, Sosa said.
The Milwaukee Bucks will tip off against the Raptors on Tuesday night at 7:30 for game four of the Eastern Conference Finals.
