Dog breed jack-o-lanterns! Although I think using a pumpkin carving ‘stencil’ or ‘pattern’ is cheating, it’s what most people use these days if they want a better-than-ordinary Halloween pumpkin sitting on their front porch. And one of this year’s most popular stencils are those of dog breeds.
Dog Breed Jack-O-Lanterns
One of the more popular carvings this year are the AKC Dog Breed Jack-O-Lanterns stencils featured on the Better Homes & Garden site. But rather than show you those formal images, the photo outtakes from the shoot are far more fun to look at.
