NEW ROCHELLE, NY (October 18, 2025) — Canines and their costumed humans showed off their spook-tacular style Saturday at the second annual Howl’oween Parade and Costume Contest at Ward Acres Dog Park.
The event featured dogs and owners in Halloween-themed outfits, including a black dog dressed as a peacock, a human in a spotted onesie walking a similarly attired canine, children as Eeyore and a tiger leading small dogs on leashes, and a dachshund in an orange pumpkin costume holding a green toy.
“Thanks to all of the ‘paw-ticipants’ for making it a tail-wagging good time!” said the City of New Rochelle.
The parade highlighted festive participation from local dog owners and their pets, turning the park into a hub for Halloween fun ahead of the holiday.
