Description

The author recounts their annual struggle to dress their dog, Rufus, in a Halloween costume. Rufus, a large, independent dog, strongly dislikes costumes and the author details the comical battle of wills that ensues each year. This year, the chosen costume is a dinosaur, which Rufus absolutely despises. Despite the hilarious efforts, the costume ends up being rejected by Rufus, leading the author to realize that maybe Halloween isn't about costumes, but about enjoying the simple pleasures of being silly and celebrating with loved ones.
