Dogs (and Humans) Don Adorable Costumes at the 2016 Great PUPkin Halloween Contest in Brooklyn
On October 29th, Gothamist photographer Amy Finkel attended the 18th Annual Great PUPkin Dog Costume Contest at Fort Greene Park, Brooklyn and captured amazing photos and a really adorable video of dogs (and their humans) dressed up in clever little costumes that pleased the crowd.
Plenty of pups brought their A-game, but the first-place prize ultimately (and deservedly!) went to the Doggie Llama, while the Fürrestree pup was awarded second place, and the Milkman Joke pup took home the third-place prize. Among the honorably-mentioned cotumes were the Shrink-O-Matic, which shrunk big pups into small; a flashy internet-breaking dog dressed as Kim Kardashian with champagne; and a pup dressed as the always-topical Construction on Myrtle Avenue.
