Yesterday, the New York’s East Village was crawling with dogs in Halloween costumes and their dedicated owners for the 21st Annual Tompkins Square Halloween Parade. BWE Photographer and GIF-ographer Lauren Deiman snapped photos of some of the best costumes at the parade (you’ll find her own dog Dakota below wearing a giant banana costume). Which left us no choice but to bring you this epic, dog-costume-fueled Special Sunday For Your Consideration: The 21st Annual Tompkins Square Halloween Dog Parade.
Update: Check out this video of me interviewing some of the best dogs at the parade! The For Your Consideration post continued underneath…
