We know that our readers love their pets, and we're kind of wondering what these critters have been up to. Want to share? Why not submit a favorite photo of your pet?

With Halloween quickly approaching, it only seems fitting that the slideshow this week features pets who are in the spirit of the season. Does your pooch like to dress up for Halloween? Have you captured a special photo of your pet in a festive or scenic setting?

A photo of any pet or animal in the family enjoying the season is welcome in this week's Pet Photo Friday slideshow.

In continuing our ongoing feature, we invite you to email a photo of your companion animal to ppsa2mi@gmail.com, any time during the week.

Participating in this fun feature is easy — simply include your companion animal's name, age and city or township of residence in your email. Be sure that your photos are 1200 pixels wide and in .jpg format.

We put the week's photos into a slideshow, publish it and promote it each Friday here in the Pets section. Check out past slideshows here.
