I love to put the red cape and light up devil horns on our family dog as a child. He would greet the trick or treaters with an evil wag that could only be destroyed with a good petting. I know that if you own a dog the temptation has been there at one point or another. Dressing up your pet is fun, but without an occasion to go along with the outfit, you are just a weirdo who wishes their dog was your child, or some other crazy story made up by the owners of nudist pets. If you check the online shops you will see that for just about every adult or child Halloween costume, that same type of costume is available for your furry friend, at a much lower price of course. With only one or two pieces of cloth used to make the outfit, the costumes are good enough to be recognized and still comfortable to a willing pet. The pirate dog is one of the most popular pet costumes on the market. The classic is the striped pants, red shirt, and hat with attached parrot costume. Some dogs will even accept an eye patch to complete the ensemble.

Dress your cute little dog in one of these adorable pirate pet costumes. A true skally wag pirate!



If you still feel weird dressing up your pet on Halloween, just remember the following. If the whole family is going out into your own neighborhood to walk around together as the children collect candy, why not let the dog come along? Your dog is part of the family, like one of your kids, right? Well kids can’t go out on Halloween night without a costume! Its just another one of those “why not” moments that make Halloween so much fun. With a feather in their cap and a wag in their step, dogs seem to dig the festivities, especially after seeing the neighborhood children dressed as M&Ms and a giant sponge. Dogs will feed off all the activity and happy energy from the strangers that pass. And if your pet can take a few spooky masks, it should have a great time escorting your little monsters around town on their quest for the biggest sugar harvest of their year.
