On a whim we went to the Pet-smart Pet Costume Contest. We dug out the Halloween costumes (doing a MAJOR purge on those tonight!) and headed to the store.
Sascha wore hers from last year. I dont know what she is but she was looking sexy and she knew it! She had her cheetah blue tu-tu and a wand with a butterfly on it. She also had a blue ring for her neck which had lost all the ribbon danglies. She was very nervous there because she never gets to go places with us. She gets waaaay too excited and is very strong and hard to handle. She is very people friendly (although most people seem to be afraid to come up to her)....it's the other dogs I worry about. She can be growly and snappy towards strange dogs. But, all went pretty well.
Malaki wore a fireman's jacket and so did Canyon.
Guess who took 1st place?!
Our two boys did!
Malaki goes all over with us so he could care less. He didn't want to walk tho, not with a costume on anyway (he does like to wear sweaters). He on the other hand, may not be so nice towards strange people, especially kids who tend to want to jump right into the itty-bitty dog's face. Luckily most of the kids there were over 10.
So, we had to be very careful with both of them at this event but it all turned out great. I think I'm going to make it a plan to take Sahara there more often so she can get use to bye-byes...and more at ease around strange dogs..
