Rio's Carnival featured "Blocao," a 20+ year-old parade where over 100 dressed-up dogs paraded safely.
Rio de Janeiro's Carnival included a unique canine street party, Blocao, where over 100 dogs dressed as superheroes and cartoon characters paraded alongside their owners in Barra da Tijuca.
The event, which has been held for over 20 years, attracted about 300 people and their pets.
This year, organizers prioritized pet safety by moving the parade route to avoid the heat and providing a hydration station.
The name "Blocao" combines "bloco," meaning street party, with "cao," meaning dog in Portuguese.
