Dog mops up the competition in Halloween pet parade

— -- At a Halloween pet parade in Covington, Kentucky, one pooch really cleaned up.

The MainStrasse Village Paw-rade this month featured loads of cuddly canines, and there was one that stood out from the crowd because of her ability to blend in.

If it appeared her handlers were mopping up the parade route, they weren't. That was a real-life dog posing as a mop.

Tammy Harris, the owner of Photo Pup Studio, shot video of the dog that has catapulted to Halloween fame and shared it with ABC News.

"This year the mop dog was our favorite costume," she said. "I didn't speak with the owner, but I think [the owner was] so clever for coming up with the idea."
