Dogs in Wigs

During the Halloween season this year I was wandering around Target and took a few minutes to check out their dog costumes. I came across something I hadn't seen before, wigs for dogs. I saw they had a pink glam wig as well as a mullet wig. The photos on the packages had me laughing out loud, and I thought how fun it would be to pose the dogs in the wigs. Unfortunately I am pretty frugal, well cheap actually, and I wasn't about to pay $10/wig just so I could pose the dogs for a few minutes. A couple of days after Halloween Anna called me from the Target in Austin. She told me that she found the wigs on super clearance and she picked them up for me. I can justify spending $2/wig because it would be worth the laughs that not only I would get, but all of you who read the blog. Just an FYI....although the dogs look totally humiliated they were very well rewarded with a several puperoni sticks.
Beck was actually really good about being dressed up which is funny because in the past she has really not like wearing anything but her collar. This Halloween she was a great sport about putting on the costumes, especially the pumpkin costume. When we took her to Hastings on Halloween to visit Stephanie I swear she was grinning while wearing the costume.
Cassius was not such a willing participant this time. He kept trying to brush off the wig with his paw, but a little puperoni fixed that.

This is Cassius' interpretation of Joe Dirt. I love the look on his mushy little face.

Beck looks pretty good in pink. The contrast of colors is great, I only wish I had a better camera to capture the colors.

Pretty in Pink. Looks like you had fun--and I guess that the puppies had fun, too. Wish I could have been there with you.
