If you and your family are dressing up for Halloween this year, then you might want to extend the costume search to every member of your family. This includes your dog. When creating a costume for your animal, remember to take their comfort into consideration. Don’t force your pet to wear anything that might bother them. Try out these five costumes for different breeds.
- Hot Dog – If you have a dachshund, this costume idea is the most obvious choice. Don’t be afraid to go for it because the joke never gets old. Get creative and give your furry friend some toppings to spice up this outfit.
- Lion – This is one of the easiest costumes to create. All you need is a mane and a matching fur coat. Golden retrievers will certainly look the part, but any breed can become the king of the jungle with one simple addition.
- Beanie Baby – Turn your pet into a stuffed animal in one step. This costume can be made with construction paper in just a few minutes by drawing the TY Beanie Baby logo. Put a hole punch in your design and attach it to your dog’s collar.
- Sushi – Headbands can be uncomfortable for dogs sometimes, so it is easy to accommodate by giving them costumes for their bodies. Turn your pug or any breed into a piece of sushi by using small pieces of fabric for the layers of the roll. Top it off with a long piece of black fabric to tie around your creation.
- Cow – This one is perfect for a last-minute costume. Simply add a large bell or bell-shaped paper to your dalmatian. If you have a white dog, you can attach black pieces of fabric or use pet paint to create the spots. Pet paint is a vet-approved spray paint that comes in many different colors.
