I don’t know about your house, but mine is barkin’ about halloween and what fun it’s going to be. Everyone has their costume and they have tried them on multiple times. Waiting anxiously for the day to arrive and taking turns “posing” for the classic photo that we take every year. When I was growing up, we would have never thought of dressing up our family dog. I keep thinking back to the show “Green Acres” and how Zsa Zsa dressed up her yorkie. My gosh!!!! The woman was ahead of her time!!! I’m not exactly sure what she dressed her dog in for halloween, but I’m sure she didn’t have the choices that we have. There are Yoda costumes, Inmate costumes, various insects, Superheroes, as well as the traditional scary witches and Dracula costumes. The ideas are endless…..comparable to purses and shoes. But, getting back to what we were originally barkin’ about…..Kippy is a football player, Bomber is a lion, Brassy Sue is a bumble bee. Happy Howl-O-ween to you!!!

We’ve all been there…you know….when you arrive at someone’s house and their dog is the first one to greet you. Providing their breath doesn’t smell, it’s not usually too annoying, but sometimes the things dogs eat….whew!!!! DogToids to the rescue!!! Finally there is hope for my furry, four legged friend. Made with beef, liver and fish flavors, these bone shaped breath mints are irresistible, but it’s the parsley that has been thrown in that gives their breath that fresh smell. To top it off, they’re made in the USA. Be sure to look for them at some of the pet stores near you.
