Saturday afternoon brought a very important New York City tradition: the annual Halloween Dog Parade and Costume Contest in Tompkins Square Park. This year’s best in show went to Giupetto, Giana, and Baxter, who sailed in on a terrier-size version of the Titanic (above). Other highlights included an adorable Robin Williams tribute, several HBO-themed looks, a pug dressed as Picasso (“Pugcasso”), and a dachshund with the NYC skyline on its back. Take a look at dozens more canine costumes below! You won’t regret it.
