Are you stressed out trying to choose a winning dog costume this year? Check out our best costumes by breed, and snag a little Halloween inspiration.
Whether store-bought or homemade, a dash of wit can take your concept from typical to triumphant.
Foremost, let your dog be comfortable—if he hates extravagant outfits, let him off the hook with a cute collar trim or another easy-to-wear look.
Be sure to give your pet breaks from an elaborate costume if it’s going to be worn for an extended period. Costumes can be hot or heavy, so keep an eye on your furry friends.
