Petsmart Costume Winners!


On Tuesday night, Oct. 21st, Petsmart stores around the U.S. had doggie costume events and a contest - so we took Franklin and Dolly in their "ear of corn" suits, and we wore matching Halloween shirts (yeah, my idea!). There were some great outfits, and some of the folks there with their dogs remembered us from last year (Rob was Aquaman and Dolly a shark; Tom and Franklin were skeletons). It was all in good fun, and everyone was just happy to be there.
One married couple were there again with their two pomeranian dogs - dressed as Elvis and a Pimp, and the woman was dressed in 1970s garb. She was so funny- (her husband didn't dress up). She said that we "raised the bar" for costumes last year, as she and her dogs came in second last year. Her dogs wore biker outfits. - this year she came in third.
Another woman dressed as Micky Mouse, and brought her two pugs, dressed as Micky and Minnie Mouse! They won second place. Another dog I thought was cute was dressed as Robin Hood (I think)- There was a princess, a dancer, a cow, a devil, a witch, and a wizard.









We also played the "Sit" to music game, and Dolly came in third. We opted Franklin out of the game because he won't sit on command, only if there's food involved! :)
THAT event at Petsmart was well organized and run, and it made my Halloween. Plus, for first place, we won $40 in Petsmart gift cards!
