So how do you enter your prized pooch in this year's competition?

• Send us a photo of your dog in his or her costume.
• Tell us the name of your dog.
• Tell us what the costume is supposed to be.
• Share a funny story about your pet wearing the costume.

Photo submissions conclude on October 31st, and voting will continue several days into November until people have had plenty of time to select their favorite. We look forward to your entries and wish you all the best of luck!

Email us your submission right now!

If you think your precious pooch might be a two-fisted, adventurer/archaeologist Indy fan – and he's just been keeping it to himself – you can order your own Indiana Jones Dog Costume starting on Friday. Here's hoping Kingdom of the Crystal Skull lives up to all the hype. We have our paws crossed! 

Congratulations to LilliBelle and Denise and we'll be sending your prize along via email. I thank those of you who were patient, not so patient, and for participating both in terms of submitting photos and casting your votes. We'll be organizing another contest very soon, so please stay tuned.

This is my baby girl Tagen. She is only 3 so of course this will be her 3rd year of dressing up! She is very loving and just plain adorable. Her aunt made her outfit for her this year and it might just be her favorite one yet. We recently found out she has some complications so that makes her even closer to my heart. She wants to wish each and everyone one of y'all a Happy Halloween!

That about wraps up the contest for this year, folks. Voting will commence tomorrow and I hope everyone who has enjoyed the entries so far will stop back in to cast their ballot. Good luck to everyone!

Piper is a 6 month old Golden Retriever puppy and this will be her first Halloween as a little Golden Indian. She has been a wonderful addition to my roommates and I. Coming up with a costume for her was easy as she is always on the hunt for a new place to dig, new cricket to jump on, and always on the look out for frogs in the grass. We thought a little Indian Scout would be a perfect fit for Piper's first Howl-O-Ween! It will be fun to see how she does with all of the tricker-treaters coming to the door. She is so friendly and full of energy, my guess is she will want to say hi to everyone!

Check back all week to see the final entries posted, or submit your own last-minute posing pooch before voting starts on Monday morning. This has been a lot of fun and we are very grateful for all of the participation. Remember – a $50 Amazon gift certificate is on the line so be sure to come on back to vote for your personal favorite.

Looks like Garden City, New York will be doubling for Dagobah this Halloween. Check back in a few days to see the final entries and cast your vote for the winner of the Amazon gift certificate. And it’s not too late to send in your own entry!

Mattie is dressed as a White Stallion this year waiting to take Cinderella to the Ball in her Pumpkin Carriage. Mattie enjoys dressing up for Halloween along with seeing the kids as they come to the door in costume. Well she would like to think that everyone is coming to visit her. At 3' tall, 125 lbs. people ask if Mattie is a horse so the costume fit well for this year! Off to the Ball! Happy Howl-O-Ween!

Mattie is a Brindle Great Dane so playing the role of a carriage horse isn't much of a stretch. Still, we hope she doesn't get typecast and have to dress up as a Budweiser Clydesdale next year! Thanks very much for the entry, Tobi – and we wish Mattie all the best when voting commences next week!

Here is LilliBelle, she is a four year old Chihuahua. She is dressed as Jasmine from the Aladdin movie. She loves to get dressed up and wear clothes. She thinks she is a princess and even has her own tiara collection! We love Halloween, and LilliBelle loves greeting trick or treaters at the door wearing her costume! She usually ends up taking pictures with a few of them as well.

What an adorable photo. Thanks ever so much for taking the time to send it in, and I wish you and LB all the best when it comes time to start voting on October 21st. That will give everyone 10 full days to cast a ballot for their favorite doggie in disguise. Keep checking back for new contestants, and for goodness sake – submit your own!
