Halloween this year may look a little different, but that doesn’t have to mean any less fun! It’s the perfect time to show off your dog’s adorable looks, and many dog owners choose to dress their dog up for the holiday. Before dressing up your dog in any Halloween costume, keep these dog costume guidelines in mind to ensure a fun and safe night for both you and your pet. Many dogs enjoy wearing costumes, but others don’t so always be sure your pup is comfortable.
