Lions and ...

Tuesday, November 2, 2010 |
well, total chaos!

I tried to dress "the boys" up as lions this year. I made their manes with great hopes that they would greet our neighborhood trick~or~treaters dressed up as lions.

Instead ...

Bentley was SO excited to attack Bozley's inviting mane attraction {sorry, couldn't resist}

Fine, I'll look at you but I'm not going to pose or look cute ~ can't you see I'm busy?!

Seriously you humans, I have papers to prove I'm a bulldog not a lion. I need a lawyer!

I'm not looking at you, therefore, you can't see me.

This is so embarrassing. I had better be getting a BIG treat worthy of this degrading costume. Whose idea was this anyway?

It took all of us to get these ridiculous photos ~ hmmm... this could be a theme for next year.

No animals were harmed, and they both were given extra attention and treats for being so accommodating :)

Hope you all enjoyed lots of Happy Halloween treats!

How cute are they? I love dogs in costumes, they always freak out and it just makes it even more hilarious!

Oh my gosh, Jo! You must have all been cracking up the whole time you were trying to get these two doggies organized for photos! Our little cairn would have taken that mane off his head and neck in all of 2 seconds. He hated anything on his head. LOL- We could never make him a reindeer at Christmas time. :-(

i'm laughing out loud...the expression on their faces! you got to wonder what was going through their heads. such a cute idea though!! they must not know that lions are king of the jungle.

I just found your blog, your dogs are so darn cute!! Are they English bull dogs?

So funny and cute. We had a neighbor who would come home from the groomer with a bow on her head and she would really act like she was embarrassed by it! I guess most animals just don't like to dress up.:) I also thought of you and your dogs last night when I was looking at the new Pottery Barn catalog. They have a couple of Bulldog accessories now.

Jo, that is too funny! Bentley is getting big! Would have loved to have seen the whole thing on video and hear the commentary. I can only imagine... :)

Hi Jo,

How sweet your darling dogs look and
they were good to even keep their costumes on for the photo.
Reminds me of the time our daughter used to dress our dog and cats up.
They really did not like it.

Happy Thursday
Hugs

This is so darn adorable! Too funny that they weren't having any of it!

They are adorable Jo. I love bulldogs! Have told you before about a bulldog named Chubby in an obedience class years ago? He fell down during a demonstration and was so embarrassed he wouldn't budge after that. They really know...

SO cute! I stopped dressing up my dogs for Halloween after I had 3 bulldogs cornered and found myself sounding like a stage mother. We are all much happier, but sadly no uber cute dress up photos...
