Two weeks from now,  there’ll be lots of furry creatures of every stripe, scale and color parading around towns all over the country. And, we’ll be bonding with our best friends, the best excuse to play dress up with them. Yup, Halloween is coming! Sophie and Jasper are ready to go. In fact, we’ve already tried on and made any necessary nips and tucks. This year, they’re rocking Animal Planet Halloween costumes. They’ve made some adorable ones for pets and were kind enough to outfit little Jasper. Mama took care of Sophie.

The point is, I’m the worst at waiting.  I get too excited. Soooo, I’m going to unveil my little munchkins today! It’s ok. They’ll get plenty of awww’s when we head out to the Tompkins Square Park Halloween Parade on Saturday, October 25th. It’s probably one of the coolest dog costume parades, competitions and all around good time. I’ll be taking lots of pictures to share with you!

So without further adieu…Drumroll, please!!

Wait, here’s another I couldn’t resist of my baby zebra:

And, here’s my sweet Sophie. I had to distract her with treats so she wouldn’t look like I was torturing her trying to take her picture. Such a pretty peacock!

Ok, ok, enough. I guess I’m kind of like that parent of yesteryear, pulling out the accordion of pictures that burst from their wallet.

You can actually see Sophie and Jasper and more cute doggies dressed in their Halloween splendor in the Animal Planet virtual parade. It’s a contest, so please vote…for Sophie and Jasper, or your fave photo. 

And, you can get your very own Animal Planet costume at  Amazon.com or Wag.com. But, hurry! They’re going fast! 

Have a safe and wonderful Halloween. Happy trick or treating!
