Wendel sure does like his beards doesn't he? I remember his garden gnome from a few years back.

Congrats to the winners! chacha, please PM me.

Thank you Priscilla, for organizing this fun event...even while you were in the hospital & now recuperating...hope you're doing much better.

I had such a tough time deciding between Wendell and Myle + Moka in my vote, those were such creative and funny costumes. So I'm happy to see they both won.

Very impressive!

Congratulations!

Congratulations to the winners! And kudos to everyone who entered the contest. All of the pups looked amazing! Thanks to you Priscilla for all of your hard work.

Wendell asked me to thank everyone for their support! I have gotten so much good advice and information about how to take care of him from YT. He was born in an Oklahoma puppy mill that has since been shut down, came to us through a rescue as a two year old and since then has devoted himself to giving back to the community. He spends his free time as a therapy dog visiting residents of nursing homes, and going to libraries so that children can practice reading aloud to him. He also helps us socialize our foster dogs, and is especially good with the shy, fearful ones.

He LOVES to dress up and have his picture taken, and will hold his pose as long as the camera is pointing at him. Here is one of the "outtakes" from his location shoot at the Lincoln Monument in Washington DC. As I was trying to get a good photo of him, I heard alot of commotion going on behind me. I turned to see a gallery of tourists taking his picture too. So I stepped back and got this shot of him with the "paparazzi."

Thanks again for supporting Wendell! I'm hoping that his prize will be something we can donate to the rescue we adopted him from to help another little homeless dog find their way to a loving new home.

OMG that is hilarious! and that sure is a lot of people!

I didn't know Wendel was a puppymill rescue, or that he is a therapy dog. That's great. How far he's come. I'm glad to read that.

Congratulations Wendell and Mylee and Moka!

Thank you Capt Noonie, Priscilla, for another fun costume contest. All of the entries were adorable!

LOVE the photo of Wendell and the paparazzi! :D:thumbup: Such a good boy with a great story.

Reading this over, I realize that in my excitement, I totally forgot to congratulate all of the other Yorkies who got dressed up for the 2015 Halloween Costume contest. I am always blown away by the creativity, care and LOVE that goes into this each year. There are stories of animal cruelty and neglect everywhere you turn, but it is such a huge TREAT to see this gallery of pampered pooches. Many thanks to the organizers, sponsors and YTers who make it such a fun event!

Yes! Awesome contest! Thanks to Priscilla for running it and thanks to all the participants for such terrific costumes! Loved the winner -- and the Pupparazzi shot too!

Congratulations and darling photos!

CONGRATS winners!!! Love the costumes!

Indeed...they were AWESOME !!

Congrats to the winners and kudos to all who participated...and thank you Priscilla for doing this again! Sorry, I could not join in this year.

Congratulations to the winners of the costume contest and to all the dogs and their clever and creative owners. I love the pupparrazi shot of Wendell and what a lovely story of his giving back.

Congratulations!! :)
