Hounds of Halloween


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 10/23/2021
Happy Howl-o-ween! On Saturday, October 23, ghoulish golden retrievers, devilish dachshunds, and terrifying terriers will return to roam the streets of downtown Albany for the BID's annual dog trick-or-treating event: Hounds of Halloween! Dress up your pup for the Costumed Canine Contest and stop by local businesses for unique Halloween treats for pups and people. Each registered dog will have their photo taken for the costume contest, and the winner will be determined by public vote via a Facebook photo album. The top three best-dressed pets and their paw-rents will receive Downtown Albany Gift Cards, special surprises and bragging rights!

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

Registration is per pet and $5 in advance through Eventbrite or $10 cash or credit at the event, with all proceeds benefiting the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society.
