It's no secret that we love dogs, really we just can't get enough. So any chance we get to set up shop and hang out with tons of cool pups and their people all day, we are down. Every October our local animal shelter Animal Friends of the Valleys hosts Paws on the Promenade, a fundraising/ Halloween celebrating/ costume contest spectacular event and this year we got to join in on the fun. The event raised funds for the shelter to aid in the rescue of many more lives. 

Our favorite part of the day was seeing all the super creative canine costumes, and of course outfitting tons of dogs in glow-in-the-dark skeleton hoodies and Halloween bandanas. There's still time to score Halloween gear at up to 50%  off, just head over here for bandana collars and here for hoodies.

vvv This awesome Mastiff was rescued from Animal Friends as a skinny, sad dog. He now clearly lives the good life and looks happy and healthy. He showed up decked out in furry lion style and took home best in show! vvv

vvv What a grrreat costume! vvv
