Today, we honor extraordinary achievements in canine costume production design. The nominees for BEST SET DESIGN are…
🐕 The Odyssey
🐕 Project Hail Mary
🐕 Bad Coconut
🐕 Let Me Eat Cake

There are too many incredible dogs to celebrate in one post or one costume contest. So we’re launching the Dog Parade Awards: a social series recognizing unforgettable moments at this year’s parade. Winners of each category receive bragging rights!
Because what happened last Saturday was theater. It was emotion! It was drama! There were achievements in costume design. Set design. Ensemble performance. Transporting elaborate costumes on the subway with four-legged companions. Gluing things together in tiny apartments. And convincing your dog to please, just for one photo, wear the hat.
Our first category: BEST SET DESIGN. 🏆
And the nominees are…
Coming tomorrow!

Ordinary People, Extraordinary Doggies!!!
Yesterday, we got to celebrate ANOTHER Knicks championship!
Congratulations to this year’s Best in Canine Costume winner, Snickers, and his mom @debbiedoll_ !🧡💙
Our judges had an IMPOSSIBLE decision to make. The creativity, talent, and costumes were completely out of this world! But in the end, our love for New York City came out on top.
To ALL the dogs and humans who dressed up: THANK YOU FOR MAKING US SO HAPPY!
A huge thank you to our four incredible judges Carol Krakowski, owner of @borisandhorton, Samantha McKinnon @fetchpetinsurance, Dr. Kwane Stewart @drkwane, Assembly Member Keith Powers @keithpowersnyc for taking on the nearly impossible task of choosing a winner!
And a very special thank you to our title sponsor @kismet for helping us bring this incredible celebration to life!
Our champion, Snickers, will receive a one-year supply of Kismet dog food, treats, and functional toppers, plus a giant winner’s ribbon signed by Kismet founders @johnlegend and @chrissyteigen ! 🏆
Thank you, @danschachner, for hosting the contest yet again! We’re so proud of everyone who took part in bringing this parade to life!

Nearly 2,000 dogs, thousands of dog lovers, unbelievable costumes, and an extraordinary amount of creativity.
Thank you to the volunteers, participants, neighbors, partners, and everyone who came out to celebrate with us. We’re so grateful to be part of a city where people will spend months building elaborate costumes for their dogs, and thousands will show up to cheer them on.
And a huge thank-you to all of our partners who helped make this year’s parade possible!

This was one of the most challenging categories for our Dog Parade Awards committee. Every dog and every costume is original, so HOW do we narrow it down to four?
But among the costumes we saw this year, a few really made us stop and think: How did someone come up with that?
These costumes were clever, imaginative, and unpredictable. We never thought we’d be so happy to see gum stuck to a shoe, or that we’d find ourselves saying the sentence “Tofu is a museum!” and have it be factually correct.
Today, we honor extraordinary achievements in originality and imagination. The nominees for BEST ORIGINAL are…
🐕 Gum Shoe
🐕 The Tofu Museum
🐕 Chicken and Egg
🐕 Little Bug Big Apple
To vote, comment below with the name of your favorite costume!
Voting is open until November 2 at noon ET.
The nominee with the most votes will be announced as the winner during the first week of November and will receive bragging rights.
If you find yourself saying, “I really wanted the lion to win.” or “WHAT ABOUT THE DOG DRESSED AS A CHEESE PLATE?!” we couldn’t agree more.
There were so many incredible costumes that narrowing down the nominees was practically impossible. We’ll continue recognizing and celebrating the extraordinary achievements in canine creativity over the coming weeks.
And please keep sending us your nominations and sharing your costumes with us! We genuinely love seeing them, hearing the stories behind them, and learning about all the creativity that went into making them.

Happy Halloween from Kismet! 🎃🐾
Some more Halloween magic from this year’s @nydogparade, presented by yours truly 🤭 Still not over the creativity, commitment, and very good dogs who made it what it was (and not quite done sharing it either).

It’s difficult to imagine another dog pulling off the Headless HorseDog quite so magnificently, or a poodle with a more convincing Bob Ross hairstyle!

Today, we honor extraordinary achievements in canine casting. The nominees for BEST CASTING are…
🐕 Headless HorseDog
🐕 King Kong
🐕 Chihuahua Circus
🐕 Bob Ross

🐕 Batdog
🐕 The Pope
🐕 Chill Pink Car Dog
