dogs in drag


Today at 1:30, Bill Haslam is taking time off from his gubernatorial campaign to announce an important event in Knoxville: The 2nd Annual Mardi Growl. What? Apparently, to spice up the doldrums of February, our fair city has decided to sponsor a parade. With dogs. Dogs dressed up in costumes.

It all happens on Feb. 21 at 11:00 am in the Old City. I'm thinking about entering my two dogs. Even if you don't have a dog, come by and watch all us dog owners preen over our pooches and fret about their sequined drag costumes.

It's sure to be ridiculous.

bella will be there, she loves a good party.

She's sure to earn some beads too.

My dog is a lush.

Bob would make an awesome entrant, no doubt.

i'll have to consult with Lucy. she gets a little agoraphobic, but like Bella she is a lush.

Despite his festive costume, that hound in the picture appears to be incredibly depressed. Poor guy.
