Halloween Dog Park Costume Parade and Contest
On Sunday, October 24th, our neighbors and their furry friends came together for some friendly competition for the Halloween Dog Park Costume Parade and Contest, organized by SPDogs. Pets and their owners walked the red carpet, showing off their creative, cute, and classy ensembles. Awards and cash prizes provided by SPNA were given for Best Doggie Costume, Best Dog Duo or Group, and Best Parent and Pup. In addition, one duo received an honorable mention. A photo gallery with the winners and many of the participants is included below.
SPNA sends a big thank you to SPDogs’ Jeff Fagan, who organized the event with help from Gale Bond. Both Jeff and Gale were indispensable in helping to bring this first Halloween pet parade to the Stuyvesant Park Dog Run (shown above). In addition to cultivating a joyful and fun event, they collected donations for Animal Haven here in New York City, helping to spread love and joy to animals across our city.
