Now listen to a story about a town named Rabbit Hash.\u00a0 Nestled in a sleepy corner of Boone County Kentucky is the only place in America where the town mayor is a Border Collie named Lucy Lou.\u00a0 You see, back in 1998 the fine residents of Rabbit Hash, Kentucky didn’t take too kindly to the fellas running for the office of mayor in their corner of the bluegrass.\u00a0 As a joke, a local yokel decided to put up his three legged dog for the office, instead of the distasteful candidates and got more than what he bargained for when his dog won the election by a landslide.\u00a0 Since then, Rabbit Hash residents have elected multiple four legged friends to the office and they couldn’t be happier with the results.\u00a0 This years election included everything from poodles to kitty cats.\u00a0 My personal favorite, however, was the miniature donkey named Higgins.\u00a0 After the votes were counted, it was the incredible campaign stylings of the Lucy Lou camp that included a lovely poster of the collie with the slogan “The Bitch You Can Count On!” that won the day.\u00a0 Who could resist casting a vote for a candidate with that kind of political panache.\u00a0 I highly recommend giving their website a gander.\u00a0 The entire site is a riot.\u00a0 Click here<\/a> to check it out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
