Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Half Price Howlloween Horror Lovers…..

Visiting Basset Hound Town just might pay off from time to time! I must tell all of the residents that I have wanted this costume for decades. I just was not willing to put my hounds in one due to the uncomfortable nature of the design.

It looks like a torture chamber…..and it costs about 20 bucks.

Well, get this. Today I was at my local Krogers and saw a sign that said, “Half Off All Halloween Stuff”! So, being the curious sort I wandered over……

What do I find? A glow in the dark apron! Hum….I stared at it for a few minutes and decided it looked just like the design I had been looking for, for the kids. I am thinking this apron would fit like a dog coat, the exact design I have been looking for.

The neck strap is adjustable and the ties look like they will fit right under the belly of a long, long hound!

I adjusted the neck strap so it fit like a dog coat and the ties fit comfortably right under the Mayor’s belly.

Here you can see the side and the tie hanging down. All of that is really fixable.

Most costumes hamper walking but most dogs seem to be OK in coats. That is why I wanted something like a coat. See howl his shoulder are totally unobstructed? The top of the apron fits around the neck.

The back is kind of long but if you are just going to a school or a retirement home it is just fine. It did not bother Chaps at all. He walked right over and got a drink with Emma.

If you want, you could cut it off. I might do that.

LQQK! Emma even tried it on!

I could tighten the belly tie to fit herz! She went right about her crumb sniffing kitchen mission!

PLUS IT GLOWS IN THE DARK! ALL OF THAT FOR 8 DOLLARS!

I am going back to get Emma an apron tomorrow……

More working the half price sections for the residents later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

    How funny! That is a great idea! And for the price, I think it’ll work out just fine.
