Halloween Dog Parade 2011. Tompkins Square Park. East Village, New York City.

I attended what is quite possibly my favorite annual event in my neighborhood, the Halloween Dog Parade 2011. It has taken place every year for the last 21 years in Tompkins Square Park which is located in the East Village. Dog lovers from everywhere dress their dogs up to compete for various prizes. The costumes were awesome as usual. In terms of topical costumes, there were a few Occupy Wall Street dog costumes.

My face hurts from smiling so much because it’s impossible not to smile since the level of cute is so high it is off the charts!
