Halloween Happenings for Dogs
Guest Author - Sandy Moyer| Halloween night can be a stressful time for pets. Although Halloween is a time to keep your dogs at home, safe and sound, that doesn't mean they must be completely left out of Halloween fun. If you have a friendly, sociable dog who likes children, gets along well with other dogs, and is comfortable wearing a costume, there are many fall festivals, pet parades and costume contests to enjoy this season. Many are part of Octoberfests or community Pumpkin Festivals. Check local animal shelters, breed and rescue clubs, pet supply stores, pet grooming salons, veterinary clinics, garden centers, and other retail establishments for Halloween events in your area. Here's a list of some of the many Halloween events for dogs that are celebrated annually in towns across America. Click on the name of an event for online information. |  |
