Halloween Is Getting Very Close!

 Yes it sure it!

Well, normally we don't actually  'celebrate' this holiday...what we do mark is the fact that the day is known as  Reformation Day among Protestant Christians...so we go to a church service. No ding dongs and goblins at the door for us! Phew!

But it is kind of fun to 'dress up' and enjoy something different. So we took our fox costumes and ourselves to the local pet shop where some of our noms come from...and they had a lady there taking pictures...she works with the ROAR group that Dalton came from...so we thought it's a good way to support that rescue.

And petcretary showed Dalton off to the lady who runs the rescue locally, here...she was the one who brought Dalton to the house, way back over 6 years ago! She thanked Petcretary for persevering with Dalton, in spite of all his anxiety and 'baggage'.

Us pups saw lots of doggies of all sizes, pets and rescues; cats hoping to be adopted...and even a bunny! Some had on costumes, and some came as themselves, BOL!

We were good pups and even though we were pretending to be foxes, in a pumpkin patch...(see our bandanas?),  we didn't chase or bark at anything. Though Dalton did give a warning grump to a dude who he allowed to give a cuddle(!!), but he got scared when that man stood up...he didn't do anything to the other men in the shop...it was crowded in there! And almost too noisy...

Anypaws we had our picture session, got a treat bag, YUM, and then went back home...where upon being relieved of those fox costumes, Benji went off to his latest project...another crater...and now the pawrty pooper petcretary covered it back up and put 3 containers of cayenne and red pepper flakes all over it! Yes it WAS that big!! 

Anypaws, here are two of the pictures from Saturday's Halloween pawrty:


They had a big spooky background, which petcretary cropped out...since she doesn't approve of skulls, etc...

Sorry this is so dark, and even petcretary couldn't get it 'fixed'.
...a little distracted, BOL!

We sure hope we won't have to be silly foxes for long...sorry its so blurry, the portrait mode was on by mistake...

Petcretary took this image with her phone, wow, it looks better than the professional's!! Except he didn’t look at the camera…

Another 'phone' picture.

It's time to hop in The Sunday Selfies! Just click here to see them all and to join, too! Thanks for hosting, Kitties Blue!

  1. Better to be foxes in a pumpkin patch than in a hen house!
    Nobby is very thankful that Halloween is not celebrated his household either.
    Well done for supporting the ROAR rescue.
