What to Know About Choosing Costumes for Dogs

Whether youre dressing your pet for Halloween or just for the fun of it, you can find a dog costume that works for your favorite animal friend and the occasion. Some pet costumes are funny, some are cute, and some are downright spooky. You can find a new or pre-owned dog costume to fit any pets personality with style.

How do you choose a costume for your dog?

There is much to know in making a selection of that perfect costume for your pet. Selecting a costume for your dog can involve a number of factors, each of which is important to ensure your dogs comfort, including:

• Find your dogs size - Instead of estimating the size of your dog, weigh your pet to get an accurate measurement. Most dog costumes are sized based on weight, not height.
• Think about your dogs personality - Choose a dog costume that fits his or her style, or choose the opposite for an ironic, comedic effect.
• Choose a theme - If youre dressing up too, you might want to wear a costume to match your dogs. If youre going out on Halloween with friends, consider a funny group costume, like the characters from "The Wizard of Oz" or "Scooby Doo."

Choose a costume for your pets comfort

Not only knowing your dog but also being aware of the conditions in which your dog will be wearing a costume will help ensure that the costume will be comfortable for them to wear. A variety of factors should be taken into consideration, including:

• Consider the weather - Dont let your pet get overheated in a heavy Halloween costume, especially if he or she will be running around; on warm or mild days, choose a lightweight pet costume made of a breathable fabric. If the weather is cold and your pet is short haired, consider a warmer pet costume to prevent chills.
• Make sure your dog can move freely - The dog costumes arm, leg, and neck holes should be roomy enough for your pet to walk, run, and jump.
• Practice with your pet - Let your dog get comfortable with the Halloween costume by having them wear it around the house first and then on walks outside.
