Happy Howl-O-Ween!

Happy Howl-O-Ween!  I’ll be the first to admit, we don’t really celebrate Howl-O-Ween at my house, we celebrate Halloween!  My dogs don’t wear costumes and they stay in their crates while my kids and husband dress up and try to scare the trick or treaters.  My husband builds animatronics for fun and we are “that house” in our neighborhood.   I would never venture down the long dark driveway with my own kids if I didn’t know what surprises lay ahead.  (We are not gory or threatening, but usually have lots of surprises.)  However, I love dogs that happily wear costumes like Miss M and Mr. B and I thought I’d share a couple of Howl-O-Ween sessions today.   Marlin the Labrador/Sebastian the crab and his girl were photographed by Marianne Barta from Black Box Photography.

From Marianne:  “Marlin is a 2 year old chocolate lab that likes to dress up. This year he and his mom decided to recreate the Little Mermaid, with mom being the mermaid and Marlin Sebastian the crab. It was a beautiful day on the shores of Lake Erie to create the perfect backdrop just for this type of shoot. Marlin was pretty cooperative considering all the distractions. And the outcome was just what we wanted, a little Halloween fun!”
