Halloween is right around the corner. Here are six Halloween costume ideas perfect for your pet.
Ken
If your dog is testing his boundaries and trying to figure out the ways of the world, you may want to consider helping him remember that he is indeed “Kenough.” This sweatshirt for dogs plays off the huge success of the summer blockbuster Barbie. It comes in 10 sizes and five different colors, but naturally you’d want hot pink to stay on theme.
USPS Mail Carrier
If your dog has an ongoing feud with the mail carrier, or perhaps a lifelong love for the man or woman who delivers the mail and a daily treat, this is the costume for them. It even comes with a small replica USPS Priority Mail box.
Classic Pumpkin
For Halloween traditionalists, don’t miss this pumpkin costume that comes in both dog and cat varieties. The adjustable Velcro straps make it easy to fit any size canine or feline, and the smiling jack o’ lantern face is pretty adorable, too. The costume is available at PetSmart. Multiple area locations
Terrific Taco
With Halloween falling on a Tuesday this year, take Taco Tuesday to the next level with this taco costume for your dog. It has an easy hook and loop closure, and the taco is adorned with all the fixings, including plenty of cloth lettuce and cheese! This costume is available at Petco. Multiple area locations
Cookie Monster
If your pup can’t get enough milk bones, perhaps this Cookie Monster costume could be a perfect fit. The costume includes Cookie’s signature googly eyes and cookie in hand. It can be found at Doggy Style Barkery, Boutique and Pet Spa in DC and is available in small, medium, large, and extra large. 1632 17th St. NW, Washington, DC
Pickleball: Cat vs. Dog
Pickleball lovers will get a kick out of this costume that’s ideal for a pair of pets. The pickleball player costume for dogs and cats comes complete with a green headband, fake hair, and of course, the quintessential pickleball and paddle in hand. Available at Target. Multiple area locations
