More than 100 furry friends gathered for the second annual Howl-O-Ween Spooky Pooch Parade and costume contest on October 31, 2009, at The Wharf in Orange Beach.
People and their costumed pets (including Oliver the piglet) from Pensacola, Slidell, Birmingham and all points in-between supported the fundraiser for the Baldwin County Humane Society (BARC!).
Crowd applause and judge Ellen Fiel, Ms Senior Baldwin County, determined the Howl-O-Ween contest winners:
