Spike

Spike, the bulldog, is the mascot for Gonzaga University. The graduating class of 2007 gifted this bronze statue of Spike to their alma mater and he sits outside the McCarthy Athletic Center. We got a closer look at Spike this visit to GU; he's quite the beast. From the one toothed half growl to the broken leash dangling from his thick neck, to the mighty toes he's pure power. The guys who were admiring Spike as we walked up told us to watch out for the "dog turds" and we thought they were just kidding around. Check out these first four photos; do you see any dog turds?

But, the guys weren't kidding as we found out making a 360 turn around old Spike. These weren't bronze turds either.
