Halloween is not only for humans to wear costumes. So do do pets. And the cuteness factor is off the charts
The 3rd annual pet costume contest pawed its way into Rio West Mall the night of Oct. 27, bringing pet lovers together for a cause. Whether dressed as a Bumble Bee, Wonder Woman, Beauty & the Beast, Duck Dynasty, Sleepy Hallow, and so on, each costume and contestant dazzled the audience.
The event was hosted by Rio West Mall and Four Corners Pet Alliance, which is a small nonprofit organization founded in 2015.
The money raised from the event goes into a fund for vaccinations, spay and neuter, and supplies for foster homes.
