Here are a few pictures of previous Halloweens' in our house.

This is Moose, our Rottweiler/Shepard mix, dressed a "Super Dog", Halloween 2000. He passed away last November. He was only 6-years old when bone cancer took him from us. We miss him terribly.
Poor Mr. Moose would hide when he saw me coming with a costume for him.

Here is my sweet Molly as a "Killer Bee", Halloween 2002. She will wear ANYTHING if I just bribe her a piece of cheese.

This is both Moose and Molly as "Killer Bee's" Halloween 2002.

This is Moose and Molly as "Hot Dogs" last year, Halloween 2006.
Moose died just 2-weeks later.
Herein lies my dilemma.
I have not shopped for doggie costumes this year.
And Rocco deserves a doggie costume.
So is putting Rocco in Moose's old hot dog costume a terrible thing? Will seeing him in that costume make me too emotional? Or will it make me realize that even though Rocco has big shoes to fill, he's slowly getting there?
Because the day before Halloween, it's either the hot dog costume or nothing.
Unless we wrap him in his favorite material, toilet paper, and dress him as a mummy.
I meant that as a joke, but it could be do-able.....

Sorry I didn't read this in a timely fashion, but what did you decide to do?? I would have voted for using Moose's costume...maybe the calmness and wonderfulness of Moose would rub off on Rocco the Terrible!! Either way, I'm sure he LOVED the trick-or-treaters!!
