The Biggest Bumblebee in the Neighborhood Is Still Just a Baby

AI imagesaint bernardhalloweenbumblebee costume

This might be the biggest bumblebee in the neighborhood, and it is still just a baby. A red and white Saint Bernard puppy lies in a bed of crunchy brown and orange leaves, wearing a fuzzy striped bee costume in yellow and black, complete with a pair of wobbly pom-pom antennae and tiny gauzy wings. Its mouth is open in a happy pant, pink tongue showing, and its warm brown eyes have a soft, gentle look. Behind it, a carved jack-o'-lantern grins from the front steps beside a couple of pumpkins and a gray house.

Saint Bernards are famous gentle giants, originally bred in the Swiss Alps to help with mountain rescues. They are typically calm, patient, and wonderful with families, but they grow incredibly fast. Large-breed puppies benefit from a diet formulated for their size and from avoiding too much high-impact exercise while their joints develop, so talk to your vet about the right plan. Their thick coat also means they can overheat easily, so fuzzy costumes should be worn only briefly in cool weather. And yes, Saint Bernards are well known for drooling, so keep a towel handy.

With that cheerful face and those bouncing antennae, this pup is sure to be the talk of the trick-or-treat route. Next Halloween, though, a much larger costume will definitely be needed.
