Dog Day: Happy Halloween

“”We are peasant babooshkas who have toiled in the fields and lost our fortunes, so please give us some food.”

“We are cute little homeless girls and we have lost our fortunes, so please give us some food.”

“We are (food)bank robbers here to get our fortunes, so give us some food–or else.”

“Mum, we are humiliated having to wear these costumes, so please stop this silly trick and just give us the treats.”

“Mum, we are kinda freaked out by these tight-fitting costumes, so please stop this silly trick and just give us the treats.”

“Mum, why must you anthropomorphize us and make us wear these silly costumes?  We deserve our canine dignity!  Now, give us some treats.”

“Mum, is this the best you could do for costumes?  An old hat and a scarf?  Really, Mum, this is beneath us.  I think you’d better just give us our treats.”

“Wow, look how monstrous our eyes seem with the yellow and green shiny glow in the center!  MWWHOOOHAAAA,  Scary! Okay, now give us some treats.”

“I think this brown and orange ensemble is rather fetching on me, don’t you, Elsie?” “I’ll fetch YOU, Chaser. Sure, you get the vibrant colors and I get the dowdy gray.  I think I need some treats.”

“Oooh, Mr. Demille, I think I’m ready for my close up!” “Oh, great, Chaser, now we might never get out of these horrible things. Couldn’t you just zip it? Those treats are taking forever. . .  *sigh*.”

And please feel free to add more captions in the comments section . . . .

and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

    Happy Halloween! I wish I could dress up my dog, but she would shred any costume in seconds.

    my alternative quote would be – ‘yeah these keep our ears warm but surely there are more attractive ear muffs out there!’ hope you have a nice halloween weekend!

    River,
    You had me guffawing almost off my seat! I think I need to be more of a stage mum–I see my retirement flashing in front of my eyes, courtesy of The Girls on film!! 😉

    Johanna,
    I’m sure The Girls would agree!! 😉

    Shellyfish,
    You were hoping; they were dreading! (But I couldn’t help myself).

    Andrea,
    Next Halloween party, I think that would be a great idea!

    Meg,
    Too funny! Though of course Elsie and Chaser’s ending would be happy 🙂

    Anniebeth,
    Well, I’d be happy to give them lots of treats on Halloween, but then how would they know it was different from any other day?? 😉
