Matt Sierra, 5, pets Lenny, a service dog with Pawsitive Perspectives Assistance Dogs (PawPADs), at PawPAD's booth at Cottage Grove's Fall Fun Days in Cottage Grove, Minn. on Sunday, Oct. 29, 2023.

Barbie strutted down a Hopkins street Saturday, wagging her tail to hoots and hollers.

The canine's owner, Jessica Klugman, decked the 11-year-old chiweenie - a crossbreed of a chihuahua and a dachshund - in a blonde wig and pink glittery bodysuit for a dog costume contest as part of Saturday's Halloween in Hopkins. But Pearl's model performance did take some incentivizing.

"There were a lot of treats that were involved today," Klugman said.
