"As I watched a dog dressed as the Costco rotisserie chicken parade down Avenue B, I couldn't help but wonder what was cuter: the canine wearing custom Kirkland Signature, or the owner who, sometime last week, opened his fridge, probably saw the leftover poultry packaging, glanced at his pooch, and thought something not many people would: My dog could wear this!"
"As the new leader of the Tompkins Square Halloween Dog Parade, there are many things I've always adored about this event. I love how it brings people together. I love that it combines canines, costumes, creativity, and community. I love how it inspired my friend to buy his first glue gun at the age of 40. It's no exaggeration to call it the Met Gala of the canine community."
Fern Watt leads the Tompkins Square Halloween Dog Parade, now formally organized by New York Dog Parade. Months of preparation culminated when dogs began arriving at 11:30 a.m., prompting excitement and a sense that the event was underway. The parade blends canines, costumes, creativity, and community, inspiring inventive outfits—from a Costco rotisserie chicken and a UPS-uniformed Labrador to a Darth Vader pug, pom-pom cheer squad, a Taylor Swift Shiba Inu, an Omakase-styled senior rescue, a caviar chihuahua, and themed owner-dog pairings like sushi and Guns N' Roses. The event encourages playful owner ingenuity and communal celebration.
