More than 40 costumed canines competed for the glory (and some cool prizes) at Howl-O-Ween on Saturday, Sept. 27.
Check out photos of the contestants, participants and judges. That's Mrs. O' Leary (aka Minnie) and her cow (aka Beasley) on the right (with owner Joanna Benjamin), winners of the Best Homemade Costume. So Chicago!
And a huge thanks to everyone who helped to make this year's Howl-O-Ween the biggest and best ever! See you all next year!
I bet the dogs would have love slipping and sliding on those lanes, but this was the owners' night out during Puptown's Bowling Night at Habetler Bowl on Saturday, June 2. Photo by the fabulous Ellen Szalinski.
Want to have a photo of your pooch having fun at Puptown? Well, you're in luck. Professional photographer Alan Jacobs has been snapping photos at Puptown this year -- and he has been posting them at his website. You can purchase high-quality prints of the photos in all shapes and sizes. Best of all, half the proceeds of each purchase goes to improving the park.
We just added a bunch of new photos (thanks to Terrance) from our last Puptown outing to the Barking Lot on February 10.
Thanks to everyone for coming out. Feel free to send in your own pix.
More than 30 dogs paraded their stuff for the judges during the sixth annual Puptown Howl-O-Ween, as dozens of other dogs watched from the sidelines, hoping for a sign of free treats.
The event was a huge success -- thanks to all the participants, guests and sponsors. And a special thanks to our judges, Mary Ann Smith (Alderman, Chicago's 48th Ward), Janice Taylor (Chicago Park District) and Scott Van Der Weele (former head of Puptown Dog Owners Group).
Please take a moment to view the contestants and the grand prize winner ...
Just added a bunch of new photos John Lenti took at the park last month. Take a look and see if your pup is featured! John also submitted a site plan of the park. Check it out -- Puptown's more than a third of an acre.
