For more than a decade a Bull Terrier by the name of Patsy Ann sat patiently on the Juneau Quay, waiting to welcome all arriving passengers. Such was her enthusiasm and diligence that she became known as Juneau’s Official Greeter. Patsy Ann soon became the most photographed dog in Juneau and her image appeared on many postcards. She was not suited to sitting around at home and spent her days wondering around the streets and dock yards, where she was everyone’s favorite. 50 years after she died, a beautiful bronze statue was commissioned by New Mexico artist Anna Burke Harris, which now stands on the spot where Patsy Ann spend many hours of her life.
