The Ghost in the Hallway Had Floppy Ears and Silver Paws
Two curious eyes peer out of oval holes in a white bedsheet, and below them, a small velvety nose sticks out like a clue. A Weimaraner puppy sits in the entryway with the sheet draped to the floor, grey ears flopped on both sides, and soft paws sticking out at the bottom. A fall wreath hangs by the door, a woven basket of small gourds rests in the corner, and a pair of shoes and a mat wait quietly. It is the cutest haunting in the neighborhood.
Weimaraner puppies are active, smart, and often very attached to their families. The breed's slim, grey look is so striking that people often call them gray ghosts. They do best with daily exercise and training, and they may get anxious if left alone too long. A sheet costume can be fun but needs care. Make sure the eye holes are big enough to allow clear vision, the sheet isn't tight, and it can't wrap around the legs or trip the puppy. Stay close, keep the dress-up very brief, and remove it if the puppy seems confused or stressed.
This tiny ghost might be called Wisp. He's a little too sweet to haunt anything. Instead he sits and waits for someone to say hello, probably hoping for a treat, a pat, and a walk later. The best Halloween ghosts are the ones who wag their tails.
