Krewe of Barkus: Photos

by: Leave a comment

For New Orleans dog owners and lovers, a highlight of every Mardi Gras is the Mystic Krewe of Barkus parade in the French Quarter. The theme of this year’s parade, the Krewe’s 20th, was “Mission: Impossible – Canine Protocol, Armstrong Bark Reloaded.” Owners dressed their dogs in all manner of costume, from French aristocrat to pirate, and lots of purple, green, and gold.
