Howl-O-Ween by the Fountains at Roseville

Clear your camera roll. Howl-O-Ween by The Fountains at Roseville lands on Saturday, October 25 from 10:00 to 11:30 a.m. and it is built for pure delight. Think dogs in coordinated outfits, kids with pumpkin buckets, and a plaza full of friendly neighbors.

Plan for a relaxed walkabout around the fountains with plenty of places to pause for photos. Most groups like to start with a few warm up laps to settle the wiggles, then find a shady spot to people watch and compare costumes. If you are doing a matching look, use the mirrored storefronts to check final details before the big reveal.
What to bring
• A short leash and a backup waste bag
• Small treat pouch for a focused sit and smile
• Water and a collapsible bowl
• A simple repair kit with safety pins and a spare hair tie

Costume ideas that always land
• Classic witch and black dog familiar
• Hot dog pup with a ketchup or mustard friend
• Lifeguard human with a floaty and a beach dog in stripes
• Garden gnome duo with tiny felt beards
Photo tips
• Face your pup toward open shade for even light
• Use a squeaker near the lens for eye contact
• Take a burst of three to five shots and pick the sharpest one later

Parking is usually easiest a little before ten. Give yourself a few extra minutes to find the best backdrop. The fountain edges, planter corners, and seasonal displays make great frames for your shots.

Close out your morning with a quick loop past your favorite shops or a celebratory treat from a nearby cafe. You will head home with happy faces and a roll of photos worth sharing.
