Lu Parker Hi! The Miss CA Pageant was fun. Here are a couple of pictures from yesterday. :)

I was one of the judges for the Miss CA USA pageant over the weekend along with actor A.J. Buckley, and dress designer Tony Bowls. It was an exciting time as usual. Over 130 women competed, but only one could win. ...

Excellent job, Lu. Your writing and producing, along with cameraman Henry's shots and editing made an appealing and interesting story. I don't know about yoga being an Olympic sport. I can't venture to guess the interest in seeing how many people would find that event the one to go to.

Lu Parker This is the last dog post for at least a few days. BUT I had to tell you that I found out that my precious dog Monkey will be featured in Cesar Millan's 2010 Calendar! He is the far right bottom pic. I'm so proud of him. He was looking rough when I first adopted him. For more pics of that and the story behind it, ...go to my BLOG at www.luparker.com Have a blessed weekend!!!!

From the first time we caught a glimpse of his incredible photographs, we have been fascinated and intrigued by Frank Bruynbroek. We wanted to know who was behind the camera capturing these powerful and sensitive portraits of dogs. ...

We were honored to help judge Long Beach's Howl'oween dog-costume contest Saturday, but while we were having a blast with L.A.'s most pampered pets, our colleague Lu Parker of KTLA News was busy helping homeless pets find new adoptive families....

Lu Parker Since I've been doing a lot with the shelters here in LA, I find it hard to sleep at night. I often see this image. It's heartbreaking. PLEASE encourage your friends and family to ADOPT and don't buy. It's one of the most important messages we can spread.

The shelter situation is truly haunting. It's unimaginable that people still buy when there's so many beautiful animals waiting for us at the shelter. It's human responsibility! Thank you for the great work you are doing in spreading the ADOPTION message.

Lu Parker PET LOVERS IN LOS ANGELES: I need your help to spread the word. My friends and I are helping the SOUTH LA Animal Shelter put on an event on Halloween day. It's a chance for the community to see all the beautiful dogs, puppies, cats and kittens. Truly there are soooo many. We will have candy for kids and a costume ...dog parade around Noon. Please tell your friends to come if only for a bit. KTLA will even likely be there. The location is only 10 blks down from the 10FW. We want to find them all good homes. Got an old blanket or towel? Bring it for the cages. It's getting cold. Kisses...xoxoxoxo

Great story Lu.

If ever you want to come down & report on our protest please let me know. We're currently protesting at Puppy and Me in Sherman Oaks, for the Best Friends Puppies Aren't Products campaign.

Yet another store who claims to 'hand pick' their dogs, yet all they do is point & click their mouse on a computer screen to order the dogs who are then shipped across country from puppy mills in the mid-west.

Lu Parker Even more proof that animals are amazing. This video kicks me in the gut knowing people abuse them. Be patient. The reveal is spectacular!!!!

Watch this elephant paint a beautiful image of an elephant holding a flower. You'll be amazed at how her talent unfolds as she carefully completes each stroke. Her mahout talks to her throughout the process as his gentle touch gives her confidence. ...
