Bumbledog

For Halloween this year, my dog and I were both dressed as bumblebees. Very LARGE bumblebees. I know, I know, but I swear that it's the only day of the year I put clothes on my dog. She's just not that kind of dog, and I'm not that kind of owner. But come on, it was *Halloween*!

Poor Luna, she kept shooting me miserable looks when I first put her in the costume:


But once she was able to shake the antenna completely off to the side, and get out to meet people and attempt to scavenge for dropped candy, she was much happier:



I joke about the candy, but it's not funny, really. I had to be very vigilant, since candy and wrappers can be dangerous to dogs. See my previous post on Halloween safety. 'Nuff said.


We went down along 24th Street in Noe Valley with my niece and nephew et al, and had a great time.

Lots of people commented on my "bumbledog" and how cute she was. A few people thought she was supposed to be a "killer bee," but clearly those are people who know nothing about my extremely friendly pooch! Even she was getting a little overwhelmed by the crowds and excitement, however, so I gave her some periodic breaks away from the crush. She was a good sport.
