Halloween weekend brings about a very important New York City tradition; the annual Halloween Dog Parade and Costume Contest in Tompkins Square Park. Everyone loves to include their furry friends in Halloween festivities, and these parade participants really took it to the next level!
Halloween 2014's best in show went to Giupetto, Giana, and Baxter, who sailed in on a terrier-size version of the Titanic (above). Other highlights included an adorable Robin Williams tribute, several HBO-themed looks, a pug dressed as Picasso ("Pugcasso"), and a dachshund with the NYC skyline on its back.
