Wilbur as acorn

Okay, so maybe dressing up for Halloween as an acorn isn't the most convincing costume. But then, how many Chihuahuas have ever tried looking like they just fell out of an oak tree?

Wilbur's other costume is one he's spent a lot of time trying out this year. It's the "can-you-tell-I'm-a-blanket?" one:

Wilbur as blanket

A little hard to get around in for trick-or-treating, perhaps, but more convincing than an acorn.

    OK, I’ve gotta ask. Did he find that hole in the blanket himself in that second photo or did he have help?? Poor Wilbur, don’t let them make fun of you. You’re way too cute!!! You even look good as an acorn. It’s odd seeing the cutie without his little tongue sticking out. Always glad for a Wilbur blog post. Thanks.

    I’d say, if you’re that cute, no need to worry about getting to the treats, because treats will come to you. Therefore I’d go for the blanket. Also, it will keep you warm on those chilly October evenings.
