It's important to keep your pets inside on Oct. 31 – animals can easily get spooked by the strange faces. If you're lucky enough to have indoor space, why not invite over your doggy's furry clique for a Howl-oween bash?

• Be realistic. Know the size of space you have, the energy level of the pets, and how long they (and you) can deal with a party. Don't try to pack in too many pups (when the number of animals multiplies, so does the risk of accidents and the amount of flying fur). Make sure you know how the dogs will react to each other by choosing BFFs.
• Set some ground rules. Make sure not to have any candy – especially chocolate – out in the open. Even if your dog can't or won't get it that doesn't mean his furry friends will be as well-behaved.

• Create a "photo studio." Gather decorations and props in a separate space before the party starts. Encourage guests to arrive with pets in costume for a photo opp in the closed door room – this way they will focus more on you and the camera than visiting pals. Dogs can be monitored for their studio time and then let back to play with everyone else after you get the perfect piccy.
• Don't force it. If things don't go well, have a backup plan or call it an early night. Consider inviting pals to meet up at the dog park on the afternoon before or even the Saturday after to take photos. That way dogs can arrive in costume for a picture and then have it removed for frolicking.
