This and That Thursday: Work with my puppies!!!

November 7, 2013 by spencerthegoldendoodle 11 Comments

So the other day my mom came home with some costumes she got from Target that were ridiculously cheap. So I wanted my friends and I to show them off! But it is harder then you think to get two rambunctious puppies to work with the camera. Here are our chronicles of that experience:

Mom finally got the shot!

Louie is sporting a pirates costume. Carlie is sporting a wild lime green mohawk and orange animal print pants. And I’m wearing a referee shirt trying to take charge of these two fur butts!

Petco Halloween

Today I attended the local Petco Halloween costume contest and met so many amazing pets. I went in my Chief Taste Tester Costume made by Key2Life. Check out the pictures below to see my amazing adventure:

Waiting for my name to be called during the costume contest.

I loved the Yoda bed that Petco sells so much I tried bringing it home with me. Also, some of the other participants in the contest. See that cat in the bottom left corner, yep, I wanted to play with him so bad I began to cry.

My mom said I did such a good job I got to pick out my own stuffed animal.

Here is my first place ribbon, participation certificate, Petco gift card and treats I received today.

Note: My mom will be donating the gift card to our local animal shelter.

Chef Spencer

Buying pet costumes can be expensive and you can only use them once, maybe twice a year. Have you ever thought about buying children dress-up clothes, costumes, or outfits and use them for the your pet?

(Spencer is very upset that the pizza slices are not real…)

In 2011, Spencer went as a Pizza Chef! It was only logical since he’s known for stealing a slice here and there when your back is turned.

I went on Etsy.com, a online “marketplace” with over hundreds of thousand seller. I came a cross this one seller, Key2Life, who makes customized aprons and chiefs hats for children. After a brief conversation letting her know what I was looking for, Spencer’s hat and apron were on their way! Once I put them on him I know we had a winning look.

Rounding the look off we made a t-shirt (mens M) that stated “For pickup or delivery call 1-800-SPENCER,” and we reused his boys size 8 jeans from the year before. We also added in a felt pizza. When everything is combined, Spencer becomes our Chief Taste Tester!

After Halloween, kids can play dress-up with the hat, apron, and pizza. And parts of the costume (such as the jeans) can be saved for another Halloween costume.
