Howl-O-Ween: I love a dog in a costume

Kathy Woods, founder of 'Out of the Woods' pet rescue

  After months of planning & a few days of frantic hand-wringing over the possibility of rain, Howl-O-Ween was a great success (and rain-free I might add). It is so inspiring to volunteer with this amazing group of people who are so passionate about rescuing homeless dogs & cats. It was our first year to have this fundraiser but I hope it will be an annual event. All the proceeds went to 'Out of the Woods' where 100% of donations are used to help rescue & rehome animals.

One person... four dogs on leashes. That involves a level of optimism that I can barely fathom.

We had 10 categories for the dog contests. My favorite categories were 'most charming senior' & 'best ears'

By the end of the day, all of the volunteers resembled this little guy.
