Don’t let the weather fool you. It’s early October and Chemainus’ holiday dog Murphy is here to remind you about Thanksgiving weekend that’s already right ahead.

It doesn’t matter whether you celebrate Saturday, Sunday or Monday with big dinners – or all three – Murphy the husky would just like everyone to have a good time with friends and family.

Murphy got into the Thanksgiving spirit early. He picked out his turkey early and intended on cooking it but wound up befriending it and just hanging out. Murphy even had his chef’s hat and apron on ready to go.

But just as important to Murphy as the feast are the decorations so this turkey and some other accessories always add nicely to the ensemble.

No one is likely to forget the next holiday after Thanksgiving, but just in case, you’ll probably see Murphy popping up again just before the end of the month for Halloween.
