Winner
Pictures of dachshund Cruz dressed up for Halloween. Bethany Price
This week’s Halloween Pet of the Week is Cruz, a year-old miniature dachshund who lives in Milton, Pennsylvania, with owner Bethany Price.
Cruz has become a local sensation for his outfits, donning different styles since he first came home at 8 weeks old.
To celebrate Halloween, Cruz has been taking on a fun challenge—wearing a different costume every day for 31 days of Halloween.
“I started looking at costumes for this year pretty early. We are going to a few events so I wanted to start figuring outfits out,” Price told Newsweek. “I couldn’t decide which one to do so I figured I would just do them all and make a month of it.”
From football player to bumblebee and even a dinosaur—Cruz has been sporting some seriously fun Halloween costumes all month long.
He’s even dressed up as popular figures including former Poison frontman, Bret Michaels, and late founder of Playboy magazine, Hugh Hefner, in a series of hilarious outfits.
Some of his costumes are homemade, while others are purchased from a series of stores.
“He is currently in training to become a therapy dog,” said Price. “I thought it would be fun if he could have different costumes to go see kids in the hospital as well as nursing homes and wherever else we go so the costumes will continue to be used.”
Finalists
Dalmatian Quint, who lives in Boothsville, West Virginia, posing for the camera in her fun “101 Dalmatians”-inspired Halloween outfit. Coty Foster
Our first finalist this week is Quint, another pup with a seriously fun Halloween outfit.
A Dalmatian who lives in Boothsville, West Virginia, Quint loves playing and meeting new people.
Owner Coty Foster told Newsweek: “We actually will spend Halloween at wonderful event at West Virginia Botanical gardens, Morgantown—Howl-O-Ween Doggie Trick or Treat—with wonderful 4.5 miles of walking trails, beautiful fall walk, lots of dressed up pups.”
Her outfit? A fun take on the 101 Dalmatians villain Cruella de Vil. The perfect costume for a Dalmatian of course.
Renzo, a rescue dog whose owner says he “can’t imagine life without him.” Ryann Bruno
Our next finalist this week is Renzo, a rescue dog who brought joy to his owner’s life.
“We saved him, and he mended my broken heart,” Ryann Bruno, who lives in Florida, told Newsweek. “We had two lady dogs when we got him. Mine, the oldest, was on her way to the next stage. We introduced Renzo into our home as our third and our son.”
“He is in love with me as much as I am with him. He brings joy to my days. I can’t imagine life without him,” added the loving owner.
Pictures of Labrador and pit bull mix Chelsea.
Last but not least this week is black Labrador and pit bull mix Chelsea, who lives with owner Deborah Limongelli in northeast Pennsylvania.
“When I first saw her at the animal rescue she looked at me with such love and hope,” Limongelli told Newsweek. “A few days later when I came back to get her.”
Since then, the pair have been almost inseparable.
“Chelsea has shown me true love and friendship in the five years that I’ve had her,” said the owner. “She loves me unconditionally, as I love her.”
