I have covered this before, and this is one of the local events that are simply great. For a photographer, who likes happy color this is it. The weather was very good, and this may very well have been the best attended Spooky Pooch. We have two hounds, and they watch with us. There are many booths set up, and there were kibble samples and other stuff. The dee-jay plays fun rock.
This year a peanut butter eating contest was begun. Watching a dog lick peanut butter (placed on/in his mouth) is hilarious; off a paper boat (in a lump) it is not so. They were going for speed. There were two weight divisions, the winner for under 35 pounds was the doggie in the shark outfit.
Some people, and families, have made repeat appearances at the Spooky Pooch. This year, this family, are the Village People.
We saw a few greyhounds, this one was a late entry. Doggie galoshes make for a humourous walk.
Lakewood Spooky Pooch. Animal House, dog is Vinnie. I, having Cassius, was pleased to see people dressed as ancient Romans.
Comic book superheroes are always represented
The gondoliers, and the big pooch's name is Batman
West Highland White Terrier, perhaps the cutest of all
And why do we have these things? Because people have great affection for their domesticated wolves.
Cinderella was pushing the pumpkin coach
There are martial dogs, these might be Martian dogs. After the parade, there are prizes awarded. They got one.
