Barking Up The Wrong Tree

New York Halloween Dog Parade

If the wintry weather is getting you down and you need a bit of cheering up, then I’d strongly suggest that you take a look at some of the pictures of the Annual New York Halloween Dog Parade.

While there have been suggestions that this is a humiliating experience for dogs, there’s no denying that many of the costumes are hilarious, and the dogs don’t appear to be too distressed by the event. At least, not on the photos.

Costumes range from pop stars like Lady Gaga to aircraft carriers, although I have to say that Tank the British Bulldog dressed as ‘The Runaway Bride’ and Jack as Don Draper from ‘Mad Men’ are among my personal favourites.
