Howl-O-Ween: Pets in Costume

Treva Palmer, Senior Disease Investigator and Intervention Specialist, Office of Disease Surveillance and Control

This is Igloo, or “Iggy” for short. He’s a 6-year-old goldendoodle. He sometimes acts like an old man who would tell you to get off his lawn. If a pillow, couch or rug is moved even 1 inch, he calls an emergency meeting to discuss the situation. Iggy’s hobbies include eating, sleeping and barking at the TV.
