Cute And Adorable Halloween Costumes For Small Dogs
63
What could be cuter than your adorable little dog dressed up in a Halloween costume this year. And if you're lucky enough to have a pet that's laid back enough to cooperate enough to actually wear pet clothing, you'll find a large supply of adorable costumes for sale online.
One thing to keep in mind when purchasing any type of clothing for your pet is that it's usually a good idea to pick one up a few weeks ahead of time and give your pet time to get used to the idea of wearing it. Other wise if you wait until Halloween before introducing him or her to their new outfit there's a good chance that they may refuse to wear it.
Picking Out A Costume
Some things to first consider before picking out a costume for your pet are the temperament of your dog and just how much he or she will tolerate when it comes to wearing a Halloween Costume.
For a more timid or high strung dog you might do better with a more simple costume such as a simple headpiece and or leg coverings. A more calm animal would probably be fine wearing one of the more elaborate costumes.
The important thing is that you take the time to slowly introduce him or her to their clothing in a way that doesn't create distrust or distaste for it. Because once your dog develops an aversion to something you will find it almost impossible to get them to wear any type of dog clothing.
Getting Your Dog Used To The Costume
Now that you've picked out your pets new outfit it's time to start getting him or her used to it. This is best accomplished slowly so as to not create an aversion. And if your dog shows any sign of stress then it's time to stop and take his mind off things with some type of fun activity that he or she enjoys.
Just remember that you should never push him into wearing any type of clothing if he hates it. And if you're lucky enough to have a pet who enjoys wearing a costume then have fun with it and pick out something cute and adorable.
It's also a good idea to not leave your pet unsupervised while wearing a costume otherwise he or she may just decide to chew on it. Which could create a health hazard if they choke.

Those costumes were pictured in your amazon ads were adorable. One of my dogs is so laid back she would deal with the costume just fine, but would balk at all the attention from humans. She was abused and is very shy around anyone other than me or my husband.
The angel costume would be especially good for my Pom's name who is Angel. She does live up to her name!
