Dog dad disguises himself as a Halloween ghost and waits quietly to see how each of his huskies and golden retrievers reacts

Three white ghosts wearing black witch hats stand near a doorway. The tallest one seems familiar… Oh, that's the dog dad! Let's wait for his pups' reactions when they see him.

As each dog arrives, we get to see their different personalities in how differently they approach the same situation. They are all adorable, though. There is a lot to investigate, especially when one of the decorations happens to contain Dad. 

I wonder how many ridiculous versions of us our dogs have met. They see us in our best and worst moments. They see us in pajamas, dressed for work, wrapped in towels, wearing skin care masks, ready for a night out, ready for a night in… and also dressed up for Halloween. Halloween adds another outfit to the collection. From their side of the couch, living with humans must feel like wondering what we're doing now all the time. 

Being familiar to a dog means you have your own rituals together, some of which nobody literally planned but started to happen, and now they are your rituals. They follow you into the kitchen and wait for you at a specific corner; they settle nearby while you work at your desk; they greet you in a particular way when you come home; they give you a particular toy every time; they wait for you sitting under the key holder when they want you to take the leash and go to the park. After a while, those habits become part of what you expect from the day and they add to your daily routine.

So when they see something new, like a ghost in their living room, it's natural that they will investigate and react. The sweetest part of it all is that every pup reacts in their own way. One of them barks and goes away, overwhelmed by the situation; another investigates and then finds out it's Dad, so he greets him; and another sees a playtime opportunity, so he rips off his dad's costume and the Halloween decorations.
