She was ready for an adventure at Barks and Boos on Oct. 15.
She brought her dogs, Mushu and Emmett, who were dressed as Buzz Lightyear and Woody respectively.
Nickols and her dogs walked the runway at The Green at UTC to compete in the dog costume contest.
Nickols said every year she makes the costumes for her dogs. In the past they have been Tigger and Pooh from "Winnie the Pooh," mice from Cinderella, and Mike and Sully from "Monsters Inc."
Nickols won first place in the "cutest" category.
Bradenton's Scott and Eryn Skage had their dogs, Rye and Whiskey, dress as a witch and a chicken respectively.
Scott Skage said Whiskey loves chasing chickens, so it only made sense for him to be a chicken for Halloween. To add to the costume, Scott Skage dressed as a farmer.
While walking down the runway, Scott Skage had Whiskey dancing and doing tricks, and that seemed to earn bonus points with the judges.
Eryn Skage joined Rye, dressing as witch as well.
She said Rye loved wearing the witch's hat so much, she had it on all day Oct. 15.
"She wears her hat so well," Eryn Skage said.
