A HALLOWEEN DOG’S LIFE
Dogs from all over New York City, dressed in the cleverest if most humiliating costumes, marched in the annual Halloween Dog Parade in Tompkins Square Park. Appearing eerily depressed, these dauntless canines nevertheless strutted their costume-laden embarrassment to the best of their ability; their proud masters and the huddled spectators were similarly delighted.
For the canines on display, the annual ritual means something different. Because it is on this day more than almost any other that they are thrown into deep psychological torment. Dressed as everything from the latest Internet meme to completely different creatures, they find themselves forced to ponder great existential questions about their status in the world, their lack of control over their own lives, and whether at this point they can really consider themselves dogs at all.
