Wag-o-Ween!!

It is utterly amazing to me that John and I have been living in Savannah for more than two months now and we only just heard about Wag-o-Ween for the first time yesterday.  How in the world can two of the biggest Dog Idiots you'll ever meet be out and about in Savannah for so long without having a clue that in less than 4 months the streets will be filled with a veritable dog costume parade?! How does this happen, I ask you!?


Well, now that we know that such a thing exists, we are looking forward to the festivities, to say the least. Not only are dogs paraded around the streets of Savannah in costume, but local businesses open their doors to the pups and hand out free treats. It's pretty much the most amazing thing I can imagine.


The only question that remains is, of course, what is Barksdale going to be for his premier Wag-o-Ween expereince?  As crazy as we are about the guy, and dogs in general, John and I have never been much for dressing him up. When we first got him, we had a couple of jerseys that we would make him wear for special occasions, but he quickly grew out of those.

The only other dressing up he's ever done was this past April for our wedding. This simple peach bow-tie with  was the hit of the party.


But a real costume?! I'm just not sure. Thankfully, we have until October to figure something out. If anyone has ideas or suggestions, please send them along!!
