February in Brazil is synonymous with Carnival, one of the biggest and craziest street parties in the world. However, residents of Rio de Janeiro wanted to make sure that their faithful pooches wouldn't miss out on Carnival, and decided to warm up for the huge celebration by throwing a special mini-Carnival dedicated to dogs! Dog lovers dressed their furry friends in colorful Carnival-themed costumes and mingled in sunny Rio de Janeiro on Saturday.
Millions of revelers dance to the beat in the streets of Brazil for five days celebrating Carnival, though in some cities the party will continue.
Glittering in fanciful, flesh-flaunting costumes, thousands of Brazilians bouncing to sultry samba beats strut their stuff as Rio de Janeiro kicks off its famed carnival parade competition. IMAGES
