    I like your idea!
    Costumes for pets is a great idea, some pets tare their costumes and some don't. By wearing Halloween costumes even pets can enjoy this Halloween in a different way. I would like to see, how my pet seems this Halloween.

Safe Pets = Happy Pets

  • Be Highly Visible: Make sure the costume is very reflective so that your pet can be easily seen by drivers. You can buy reflective tape and add strips to the costume.
  • No Loose Parts: Make sure there are no loose parts on the costume that your pet can eat. Objects such as loose fabric or buttons can become lodged in the intestines causing an obstruction. Loose parts can also cause your pet to trip or become tangled in the costume, resulting in fear, anxiety and a future dislike of this holiday.
  • Not Too Tight: Make sure that the costume is not too tight. You should be able to get two or three fingers between your pet and any fabric or tie that goes around your pet, especially around the neck.
  • Not Too Hot or Heavy: Your pet could overheat if the costume is too hot or too heavy. Take special care to check his level of comfort several times during the evening. Excessive panting or falling behind should signal you to quit.
  • Use Your Leash: Your pet may become frightened or spooked by loud or unusual sounds. On the other hand, he or she may also want to run to play with kids or other pets. Keep your pet on a leash and away from the areas cars are driving by.
  • Take Your Own Treats: Pets often want to taste the goodies which are very harmful for your pet. Chocolate can be toxic, and other candies can cause vomiting and diarrhea. Take some pet treats with you so he can get his own kind of "goodies" during the evening.
  • Pet ID Tag: Make sure pets are wearing current Pet ID Tags. Many pets get spooked and escape. Unfortunately they end up in shelters without identification.
  • Listen To Your Pet: If your pet really doesn't like to wear a costume, don't force him. Even if he looks really cute, forcing a pet to do something he does not wish to do can result in some bad behaviors and future conflicts.
  • Practice: Get your pet used to the costume you have selected. Have him wear it several times before the actual day. He will be so busy watching all the Halloween activities that he should not have to worry about some strange new piece of clothing. For more choices, visit the Halloween Shop.
