Calabro’s brother, Dominic, 8, tied first place with Mary Mast, 9, for the “best dressed super hero” pet. Dominic’s beagle, Pogo, donned a Spider-man costume complete with booties for the contest; Mast’s cockerspaniel, Blackie, wore a small Wonder Woman outfit, very similar to the one seen in comic books.
