Beware of Burbank. The city leaders here encourage residents to dress their dogs in costume for Halloween. What do they call this howl-arious event? The Downtown Burbank Halloween Celebration. Trick-or-treating along San Fernando Boulevard, where merchants will be stocked with sweet things to suck, At 6 p.m., it's the pet parade — and you really haven't lived until you see a basset hound tarted up like Cher. The gays of West Hollywood would be jealous.
