keeping dogs safe on Halloween

My enormous dogs are running flat out
cannot go out tomorrow, I have no doubt
Halloween night is frightening for pets
ghouls, goblins and ghosts can cause them frets

dogs cower inside on the eve of black cats
in the sky zoom Dracula with bats
only one night they ask me with puppy dog eyes
Day of the Dead will be here at sunrise
