Pixie as “Rapunzel” | 1st Place Winner

Today was a special day in the life of your three year old family pet and service animal, Pixie, for she was the lucky 1st prize winner at Scraps Dog Company’s annual Scary Tails Howl-O-Ween costume contest with her Rapunzel outfit!

The 6 pound chihuahua’s outfit was carefully constructed by my brilliantly creative wife, Kat, which included a bejeweled silky dress with plenty of sparkle, a princess hat and attached blonde hair extension with yet more sparkle.  In addition to the costume, was a handmade tower (yes, an actual tower for Rapunzel to reside in), complete with flowers, shrubbery, bricks and a straw roof.

The images seen here were snapped on my iPhone 4S and were quickly edited using Snapseed.

We’re big fans and supporters of Scraps Dog Company year round, and are honored to take home the prestigious 1st prize basket full of treats, toys, food and even a doggy-themed picture frame!  If you haven’t yet treated your dog to one of the handmade cookies, cakes or snacks, we highly recommend doing so at your earliest convenience!
