It’s not that Stanley the beagle was camera shy — he’s got his own Instagram and is accustomed to posing for photos. It’s that he didn’t want to be dressed as a dragon, and so he wouldn’t cooperate as his owner, Lale Morrison, tried to pose him.
“He is not a big fan of it,” said Morrison, Rep. Jared Moskowitz’s chief of staff, at the annual “Bipawtisan Howl-o-ween Dog Parade” on Tuesday afternoon.
Stanley attended with Bon Bon and Pepper, white and black standard poodle sisters who were costumed as a Slytherin and a Hufflepuff, respectively, as part of a Harry Potter theme among Moskowitz’s staffers. They were among the dozens of dogs whose owners — including members of Congress and staff — paraded them through the Hart Senate Office Building atrium Tuesday afternoon, as has become Halloween tradition in Congress.
