Halloween with your dogs?

Happy Hump Day everyone!  Hope your week has gone well so far.  Yesterday is was around 85 degrees.  Today it's supposed to be 64 and super windy.  Go Figure!

I have always liked Halloween because I can dress up the dogs - LOL!  When my sister's kids were younger, I would dress up Emmy and then later Spencer and go trick or treating with them and my sister.  I really enjoyed doing that!  I also dress up Spencer (now Buzz) for the Oct. Greyhound meet 'n greet.  Greyhounds are so easy to dress up because they'll tolerate just about anything.  These past few years I haven't really done much with them because my sister's kids are too old now for trick or treating.  Occasionally I will go to a block party my sister and BIL put together on Halloween but it's not the same.  I might go this year since Halloween is on a Sat.  All 3 dogs have their special Halloween collars on even if I don't do anything with them - LOL!

Have you ever celebrated Halloween with your dogs in any fashion?

Since we live out in the country we never get trick or treaters but I sometimes dress up the dogs for a photo. One year I dressed them up and we went to the Halloween party at Petsmart. It was fun but I'm not doing it this year. The shelties are similar to the greyhounds in that they're really good about "wearing" stuff. And when they were young, I put stuff on thier heads a lot so they're used to their wacky old mom.

I know you've seen it before, but here's their pic from a couple of years ago.

Like Greta - we don't get a lot of trick or treaters. And since Jack/Taz don't like to dress up I just leave it alone. We always go out Saturday night so we won't even be home!

Pug-o-ween!  Need I say more?

 

Every year for the past 8 years!

Our church is having a Trunk-or-treat in the parking lot on Halloween.  Also games, bounce house and pizza.  My daughter was thinking of taking her kids.  The older one is 12, and he probably won't want to go.  But the little one can wear his Curious George costume and have fun.  If my daughter goes, I might dress Moe and Anya up and take them, too, just for grins.

I just love seeing Gracie & Bud in their Halloween outfits!  Do you dress them up when you do therapy visits?
