Halloween Dog Parade 2008

Hey guys,

Drew here.  Yesterday I went to the Halloween Dog Parade in New York.  Here are some highlights:

Many more after the jump:


And of course, no Halloween Dog Parade would be complete without a ridiculous number of beedogs:


There were so many other good ones I didn’t include here.  Even some very politically revelant dogs.

I’ll let you visit the Parade’s website to learn what the winning costume was.

    It seems as though the only people who ever enter these contests are the people with lapdogs or pitbulls. I think it would be really funny to see a giant Cow Dog or a German Shepard walking down the street.

    props to the dog who dress as Obama or is that Obama with a dog photo-shopped to his face?

    In Chicago there was a great dance who was just wearing a collar and a tie.

    I really liked the message: Big dogs don't mess around.

    Is it just me or are Americans obsessed with putting clothes on things that should not be, or do not naturally occur being (and therefore should not be made so ~) clothed?

    • Mike Chapman says:

      Humans aren't naturally clothed. Should we avoid putting clothes on ourselves?

      • Jez says:

        I also included "putting clothes on things that should not be". People should be clothed, due to inherent sense of humility (some more than others), shame and modesty. It in fact seems less modest to wear clothes but make them revealing, than it is just to be naked. How weird is that…

    I just love how all those dogs look absolutely thrilled to be there in costume. The spirit of Halloween is within them all.

    i will never unsee this.

  8. Andreal says:

    I love how you included a picture of a small child in a carebear costume in there, hah!

    • Decanus says:

      I don't believe I missed that the first, the second and the third time I looked through the montages! xD

  9. mish says:

    That corgi and his costume are the best.

  10. Alexis says:

    I seriously heart shark butt, Batman (those ears!), grumpy taco, tiny bat, and Oscar. Sushi was good too.

  11. Pejter says:

    The dog being a Polish Jew? That seems like one of the last episodes of Family Guy. When in Poland you can only see Jews. OK, I admit there's a lot of us :P

    But – He could have been…hmmmm…. Portuguese, Puerto Rican, Pennsylvanian or something.

    And honestly I thought his name was like that because he smelled… LOL

    OK, that is it for my thoughts and contributions. Now cookie and milk and off to bed.

    i'll have to share my dog's costumes. i'm an angel, my fiance is a devil and we got corresponding costumes for out two dogs, haha.

    Does this mean… mean…. THIS IS THE END?!

    *bursts into tears*

    • Jez says:

      Possibly. Possibly yes. Then again possibly no. I have no place to judge as I do not run the site, but I feel the compulsion to reply but at the same time have no authoritative say whatsoever with no particular persuasion.

  14. Kev says:

    My favourites were Batman and the rear-end-bitten-off-by-a-shark dog.

  15. […] went to the amazingness that is the Halloween dog parade last year, and god I am excited to see what this year brings. More info […]
