A preview of what might be walking into your veterinary clinic this month.
Pet costumes have come a long way. There are almost as many options today as there are for people. We couldn't resist picking a few of our favorites from spirithalloween.com, baxterboo.com and partycity.com, but costumes aplenty are available from many sites online. (We just hope there aren't any wardrobe malfunctions, such as consumed accessories, necessitating difficult-yet entertaining-foreign body removal in your veterinary clinic.) And we would love to see pics of your patients-or your own pets-suited up for the festivities. Just email us at firstline@ubm.com.
