The Annual Tompkins Square Park Doggie Halloween Parade

Web_wallaceSome of you Bark readers may recall an installment of "Rex and the City" I wrote years ago called "The Curse of the Three-Headed Dog"--about the time(s) I forced my poor dog to dress up in silly costumes in order to compete in the famous Annual Tompkins Square Park Doggie Halloween Costume Contest(s). I was determined that he win, and one year dressed him up as Dogatella Versace, complete with a blond wig and custom made Versace dress, with strategic holes cut out for his privates.

The prizes at this contest were--and still are--stellar, and the competition fierce, and I am surprised there has not yet been a reality TV show about it. It is New York, and NY crazy dog people, at its finest.

But anyway, this year I was invited back as a judge at the contest, alongside other illustrious New York City dog-loving "celebrities." I was more excited about this than my own wedding! 

And for those of you who have not yet had a chance to read "The Curse of the Three-Headed Dog," ( a version of which also appeared in my memoir, REX AND THE CITY), I've posted an expanded version on my own blog page.

Happy Howl-o-weeeeen! 

Love from Lee and Chloe
