Bushwick Dogs Compete in Costume at Irving Square Park October 24
Costumed pups and their people take over a Bushwick park for one afternoon that raises money for job training.
🎃 Howl-O-Ween in Bushwick
Irving Square Puppers and Pawsability Dog Club host the fifth annual Howl-O-Ween at Irving Square Park on Saturday, October 24, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM. Dogs enter the costume contest for a modest entry fee, and all proceeds support job training and employment for autistic and neurodivergent people through Pawsability. Prizes and giveaways round out the afternoon.
The park is a neighborhood regular, rated 4.3 by more than 1,000 visitors, with a dog-friendly area, a fenced playground and a renovated restroom. It stays open from 6:00 AM to 1:00 AM daily, which leaves room for a slow loop along Knickerbocker Avenue after the judging.
