Happy Howl-O-Ween!

Each year, just before Halloween, Chateau-Animaux sponsors a canine costume contest known as "Howl-O-Ween" in the beautiful and historic Lincoln Park on Capitol Hill, in Washington, DC.  We invite local celebrity judges and award prizes in five fun categories:  Scariest, Funniest, Best Disguise, Best Dressed and Best in Show.

In 2007, our judges included:  Cristina Amoruso, Executive Director of Barracks Row Main Street; Dee Atwell, Chair, Stanton Park Neighborhood Association; and Michael Gibson, Metropolitan Professional Pet Services.  Here are some photos of the event:
