Halloween Costumes for Dogs!

49d628c9fcd7fe5508b20055eaef0810There are two weeks left to Halloween – time to think about what your dog is going to dress up as this year!

I am not always someone to dress my dog. In fact, unless it is darn cold outside, I do not see the point in putting clothes on dogs. Doggy dresses, pants, shorts, bikinis…(yes, you heard me right), all seems a little strange to me. Dogs have fur, why do they need clothes?

However, I get a kick out of Halloween costumes for dogs as long as the dog doesn’t mind, the costumes are designed with comfort in mind, and they are removed immediately if the dog begins to fuss. I know an adorable black Staffie terrier that dons a bee costume every year and each Christmas I get a kick out of my sister-in-law’s cat in her Elf costume.

My favorite dog shop, Oh My Dog Supplies, has a wide selection of canine costumes, something for everyone no matter how difficult they are to please.

At the very least, the pictures are worth a giggle or two – especially the look on the Cheerleader’s face and the lobster costume…who would have thought to dress a dog as a lobster!

    Just to comment on dressing dogs up, most people may not know that they really dont do well with clothes or costumes on. They communicate with their body language, and costumes restrict that. It can be very stressful in fact for your dog to have their back fur/tail covered up especially around other dogs in the same predictament. LOL It would be like humans all having their mouths and hands covered up. :)
