Astros Dog Days Delights Fans, Elevates Cypress Canine to Celebrity Status Story by Patricia Hudson • Photos by Juli Radcliff
The term Dog Days of Summer typically conjures up images of hot, sultry nights in the South. For Houston Astros fans, the annual August Dog Day event is an opportunity to have canine family members join in the fun at Minute Maid Park. While a late rally by the Seattle Mariners resulted in a loss for the Astros, it didn’t seem to faze these park visitors. One Cypress dog basked in the limelight, garnering the attention of delighted fans. Kuzco Radcliff, a Pomeranian/Husky mix with astonishingly piercing eyes, is a resident of Blackhorse Ranch, and makes his home with his dad, Jeff, mom, Juli, and his human siblings, Carter and Brady. Big brother, Tyler, and his new bride, Kasside, came along for the fun. “He made the Jumbotron and the Houston Astros twitter,” shares Juli delightedly.
