Well-Dressed Pets

My sister, my husband (recently married) and I love to make people laugh and smile by dressing up our dogs for the local costume contest in Winter Park, Florida. Our dogs have been featured on the advertising fliers and posters for the event and in the Orlando Sentinel. They always receive a warm reception from the crowd. Bulldogs pretend to be so tough, but in their hearts, they are all about love. They know how much people enjoy seeing them all dressed up and sometimes, I swear, they are smiling or posing for the crowd. Our dog is Bosco (middle dog). My sister's dog is Bullseye.

This year, we plan to have Bosco and Bullseye compete as "Surf and Turf." They are the greatest dogs.
