Meet Lola. She's a 2.5 year-old Frenchie and the love of our lives. This year, we decided to dress her as a prehistoric pup because her lack of manners and decorum are really part of her overall charm.

 

There are so many things that make Lola the most incredible furbaby in the world. For starters, she’s intensely loyal. She’s also absolutely hilarious, goofy, and sweet as can be. She’s not the sharpest tool in the shed but she tries really hard. She gives great kissies and walks around with food all over her face for a good 10 minutes after mealtime. She’s such a cuddly sleeper that it almost makes her snoring bearable. I could go on and on but every Halloween I’m reminded of one of her greatest qualities.

 

She’s amazingly tolerant. While she doesn’t particularly enjoy it, she actually lets us dress her up in costume year after year. And even better, she actually poses for pictures. I don’t know what I’ve done to deserve a doggie that loves me enough to torture her in this way but I sure am grateful.

Yee-haw!  It's more hoedown than showdown at our K-9 Corral!

Golden best friends are showing off their hand sewn, finest western wear. "Buckaroo" Bailey stands proud in his rugged, leather vest with cut fringe detail over a pony-patterned shirt.  His silver revolver is slung on his right hip, lasso on his left, atop custom wooly chaps makin' him a tall drink of water.

Don't be fooled by Miss Dashwood's flouncy petticoat!  This Calamity Dash can hold her own on the open range.  The Annie Oakley inspired suede dress sports Texas-sized sequin stars with fringe shoulders.  Embellished hat and decorative cuffs add cowgal flair.  Crisp blue collared shirt with bronze buttons completes the sharp-shootin' outfit.

Embodying the high noon scenery, Brookman the Standard Poodle is the Rollin' Tumbleweed.   His rollicking personality can scarcely be contained within his decorated harness.  This dusty tumbler is crafted of natural vine wired in multiple circles.  Burlap strips were cut and twined to the piece and accented with dried thistles.  A matching Wild West headpiece branches off his apricot head.  He'll tumble right into your heart.

These ruff riders are sure to have a rootin' tootin' Howl-o-Ween!
