For years, Spencer cheered on thousands of runners competing in the Boston Marathon®. Whether rain or shine, Spencer brought joy, love and smiles to all runners who passed him, making him not only man’s best friend, but the marathon’s best friend. A therapy dog from Holliston, Mass, Spencer will be remembered as the official Boston Strong dog.
This captivating statue is a true masterpiece crafted by local Canton artist, Jeff Buccacio, of Buccacio Sculpture Services, pays homage to the remarkable legacy of Spencer.
Funds were raised through a grassroots community outreach to Boston Marathon runners and friends of Spencer and Penny Facebook page.
