Pets Strut Their Stuff

By Coastal Breeze News Staff

To welcome in December and, of course, the upcoming holidays, Christmas Island Style held their annual “Pets on Parade” event at CJ’s on the Bay in the Esplanade. Singer Rosetta Stone provided the entertainment for the night, singing Christmas tunes and other holiday classics.

For the parade, pets and their owners were encouraged to come dressed in their most festive holiday attire. There was a dog costumed as a present, another as mistletoe

and who could forget the crowd favorite, golden retriever and winner of “Most Original Costume,” Jake from State Farm?

The costume competition was the name of the game that night, and competition was fierce. Pets and their owners strutted their stuff down the red carpet as if they were on a catwalk at a New York Fashion Week runway show. All in the hopes of winning the costume competition and, of course, the glory that comes with

it.

Though it was a tough decision as all the pets were undoubtedly adorable, the judges ultimately had to pick a just few winners. In the end, nine lucky pups walked away with prizes.
