I sort of dressed up my girl!  Here she is with her jester's collar.

Who says black dogs don't photograph well? Gorgeous!

Dr. Patty Khuly October 31st, 2009 10:11:59 AM

Thank you Dr. K!  I've had plenty of practice photographing my girl.  We got her almost a year and a half ago and my flickr account has over 2000 photos of her!  She seems to like to pose, as you can see!

Crysania October 31st, 2009 10:48:57 AM

Not mine but completely adorable!

barri: Send me your pics and I'll post 'em for you.

Dr. Patty Khuly October 31st, 2009 01:04:30 PM

Too funny on the tripod/tricycle. Great attitude!

Dr. Patty Khuly October 31st, 2009 01:06:26 PM

I tried to post my photo of me "Eeeeevil Halloween Pumpkin with Glowing Eyes" but I can't get it to post, all I get is a red "x." I have emailed it to you also. Many thanks and love this site.

Faith October 31st, 2009 01:43:33 PM

Eek, hate to burst anyone's bubble, but "Fully Vetted" is already the name of a veterinary blog (fullyvetted.com) that's been around awhile...  I still like Dolittler best.

 

LaShelle October 31st, 2009 03:06:11 PM

Here's yours, Faith (eeeeevil pumpkin):

Dr. Patty Khuly October 31st, 2009 03:22:52 PM

LaShelle: Yeah, I know. We're working on that. In the meantime, I really don't need the URL. Thanks.

Dr. Patty Khuly October 31st, 2009 03:24:19 PM

Here's my boy, dressed as "The Root of All Evil".......Can't figure out how to put a picture in your comments as it's on my hard drive, not a URL...See it on my blog at: http://cardiganshirecorgis.blogspot.com/2009/10/root-of-all-evil.html

Happy Halloween!

Taryn October 31st, 2009 03:25:59 PM

What a pose, Taryn!

Dr. Patty Khuly October 31st, 2009 03:31:24 PM

Nothing too original, but still pretty cute I think.

Sarah October 31st, 2009 05:03:51 PM

Aww, all the pictures are great! My cats are looking at me incredulously. "Yeah, we know you have costumes. We also know you haven't cut our nails this week. You really want to try that?"

I'm just going to enjoy all ya'alls :D

 

AnneT October 31st, 2009 07:31:10 PM

My dog wouldn't let me put a costume on her, but she did oblige by carrying round a plastic severed hand and dropping it at the feet of trick or treaters. It was a little unnerving, the way she gnawed at the bloody end.

simba October 31st, 2009 08:21:46 PM

Hi Doc

I don't know where to send the pictures..

We just got back from the Greenich Village Halloween parade..  Some of the dog costumes were unbelievable.. I'm relieved that Socks was safe at home

barri October 31st, 2009 08:34:52 PM

Winnie is only mildly tolerant of costumes and clothing, so her skeleton costume is the most we've ever gotten away with...

Megan October 31st, 2009 10:36:10 PM

Awww, Winnie. What kind of Corgi are you that you're not over by the fridge? In shape, too. But then, I guess that follows. 

Barri: Send me the pic via the 'contact us' button in Dolittler's navigation bar.

Dr. Patty Khuly November 1st, 2009 12:43:01 AM

Oh, after facing the shame of Winnie receiving a 6 out of 9 BCS by the school's nutritionist during a body condition scoring wetlab, Ms. Winnie went on a diet... she's now a trim 4.5/9 :)

Megan November 1st, 2009 05:43:26 AM

Awesome pictures..

I don't have a clue what why I can't send them.. I tried going to contact us.. I am able to send them in an email, but can't copy, and paste them.. I even had a friend come over to help.. UGHHH

barri November 1st, 2009 07:06:47 AM

Tucker tolerates it, not happily, but after 9 years he's accepted it.

Miki November 1st, 2009 08:07:16 AM

 

Severely abused pit bull in search of loving, costume-free home. Poor Luce. She has to put up with so much.

Katie November 1st, 2009 09:17:05 AM

OMG, they are all terrific!

Katie, what a photo---the colors are extraordinary!

No kitties? How come?

Barb A./NH November 1st, 2009 10:21:03 AM

I would send in pics of my kitties in their costumes, but last time I tried them up, Max left me a "treat" on the couch.  : )  Suffice to say that his skunk costume is packed away this year.

Posey November 1st, 2009 10:58:54 AM

Posey: Sounds like the skunk costume was especially apropos.

btw, So far, Luce is winning. She looks so pathetic, how could she not? 

barri: Here's my direct email address: khulyp@bellsouth.net (everyone else has it, why not you?).

Dr. Patty Khuly November 1st, 2009 11:35:47 AM

Oh how precious! 

I love them all!  I got a special chuckle from your little ones, Sarah, totally engulfed in their devil and dinosaur (?) costumes and also Luce, because some of these pitties are SOOOOO tolerant and such big ol pushovers, that pic is totally the advertisement for it.

I dare not dress my cats . . .

Stefani November 1st, 2009 12:58:21 PM

 

here's my husband trying to hold them for last year's photo....they are pulling the costume's off one another...it was hysterical.

LorriM November 1st, 2009 03:05:17 PM

okay, don't know what that didn't post...

they can be seen here..

LorriM November 1st, 2009 03:40:28 PM

LorriM: Here are your babies.

Dr. Patty Khuly November 1st, 2009 04:25:10 PM

Barri's critters. Finally.

Dr. Patty Khuly November 1st, 2009 04:30:07 PM

I'm not holding my breath that this well work... but this *may* be my guy as Harry Potter!

eegd November 1st, 2009 06:29:36 PM

Barb-

I actually do dress two of my three (feline) boys up most years... unfortunately, this year one of them was having some issues and Halloween was spent keeping an eye on him, so we didn't really bother with costumes. Maybe next year, though. They're remarkably tolerant and don't seem to mind it at all! It didn't occur to me to even try it until I threw some bandanas on them for a Christmas party and realized nobody cared. I thought I was going to get eaten alive, but they were all about the extra attention they were getting because none of the attendees had seen a cat in a bandana before.

Now? They've created a monster, haha.

emily's Harry Potter (love it! sorry I couldn't get the whole cape in):

 

 

Dr. Patty Khuly November 2nd, 2009 08:59:26 AM

OK, I'm closing it and picking the winner. Will Luce's owner please email me and let me know her address and the type and size of non-Rx flea product she desires??

Congrats!!

Dr. Patty Khuly November 3rd, 2009 06:54:16 AM

Luce says thank you! Or, well, at least I do. She probably still says "Imma kill you in your sleep. Just you wait."

:D

Katie November 3rd, 2009 12:07:35 PM

Congratulations Katie & Luce! Between the expression, costume & vibrant colors--- well deserved win.

What fun, loved them all !

Next year should be kitties only??!
