Man's best friend should never be left out of any event--including the Halloween season. No matter what they do or don’t do, we love them for it. When it comes to dog costumes for Halloween parties, there are many ways to dress up a favored pooch and you don’t need to know how to sew to do it right. Big, small or really small, there is a dog costume that will fit your pet. Remember, your pet doesn't have to be a dog to wear a dog costume--just make sure to buy the correct size or simply make one!
Many dogs and cats can fit into children’s size clothing. Old sweatshirts, jeans and even one of your child’s past Halloween costumes can easily be recycled and transformed into a new witch or ballerina outfit. Bear in mind that dog costumes should contain as few elements as possible and because it only has to last through one wearing, can be easily fastened with Krazy Glue or duct tape. Making costumes for cats is easy as well, but getting your cat to wear it is a whole other matter.
You may not have the time to think all these things out, in which case, buy dog costumes online. Superman, cape and all, and other characters await without the planning and improvising.
Keep in mind that Halloween costumes are not on doggy lists of fun things to do. You want to make the costume as comfortable for your pet as possible. Avoid slipping anything over the animal’s head. The costume should not restrict movement or be too tight or too long for the animal to walk in. Your dog must be able to see and breathe through the costume so put those aviator goggles away. Make sure too that your pet can’t chew or choke on any of the parts. (Beads and tassels should be nowhere near the animal’s mouth.)
If you feel really inventive, why not go as a vet and your pet can go as him or herself? Or attach a whiskey bottle to the collar of your Labrador Retriever and pretend he or she is a St. Bernard. Or if you have a Collie or German Shepherd, you can pretend that he or she is Lassie and/or or Rin Tin Tin.
Have fun with your pet for that is the point.The author commonly writes about costumes and costume accessories for SummitFashions.
