Everyone loves a great Halloween costume — so why not get your pet in on the action? Take your usual Halloween costume up a notch this year with a coordinating or matching costume for your pet! From old classics to a few new twists, we found some great costume combos for you and your best friend.
While dressing your pet in a costume is fun for special occasions, be sure to follow directions on the package and don’t keep your pet in a costume for long periods. Check to make sure straps aren’t too tight and keep a close watch on your pet while she is wearing her costume.
