I figured teach him while he was young so we took him and at first he was scared of all the kids running up to him and petting untill he relised that they were kids. all went well aramis love trick or treating and we ended up at me mother-in-laws house to help finish giveing out candy.

my kids were eating thare candy and Aramis just gave me that look ...like mom I walked it too so i gave him a few smarties once he relised that there was candy in all those bags he used his looks to sniff all the bags. it was like ok .. you want to pet me let me look in to your bag for a good sniff and maybe a taste or two. all went well untill two scooby-doo's came up they loked like homemade costumes couse they had stuffed heads and for some reason the faceless kids didnt get him but scooby doo did he growled and barked and curled up on my lap. I told the kids they couldnt pet him i was afraid he'd bite them he was so scared. afterwards we all laughed at aramis,how he was protecting the candy from those big dogs......

Rocky was a very good boy when all the trick-or-treaters came by. He also had to smell everyone's bag. He was afraid of one costume, it was a white mask that bleeds??? I am not sure how it worked but it scared me . Also, many kids would ask me if he was a pitbull, I corrected them and allowed them to pet him so they realized he is a friendly wimp .

Minnie got a chance to greet all of the Trick-or-treaters last night too. It was a trip to watch. She pretty much had the same reaction to all of the trick-or-treaters...an excited kidney bean dance followed by a semi-confused head tilt.

She was kindof freaked out at first, but got over it quickly.

My husband and I took the kids trick or treating last night and of course Pru and Sheeba had to go along. Tyson stayed home, he gets timid around people he doesn't know and I knew he would freak out around lots of monsters he doesn't know. Pru and Sheeba had a blast. Of course we practiced obedience while we were out, they had to sit while the kids ran up to each house to get candy. They just pranced around looking at all the lights and kids. I bought the Taia and Tyler blinking lights to wear on their costumes and picked a couple up for Pru and Sheeba to wear on their collars. They looked so cute. They loved all the attention. I wish Tyson would have been socialized as a puppy so we could take him into crowded areas also. I really enjoy when we go places as a family and dogs are welcomed too.
