A little guidance

Help choosing funny dog costumes

Buying guides and care advice written for this range: what to measure, what matters and what to skip.

From our guides

This page picks the silliest outfits from our dog Halloween costumes: fleece and hooded dinosaur costumes, a plush dinosaur harness costume, a dinosaur raincoat, a cowboy rider novelty costume and a cowboy hat and bandana set, a spider costume, a spotted monster fleece jumpsuit, a nurse costume with cap, and a bob wig for dogs and cats. It is for Halloween parties, costume contests and photos that make people laugh.

When funny costumes matter

Costume searches climb from early fall and peak in the weeks before Halloween, when dog parades, costume contests and trick-or-treat walks fill the calendar. Funny costumes also come out for birthday parties, themed photo shoots and any day you need a laugh. Order early so you have time to try the costume on before the big day.

Dinosaurs are the year-round favorite, with cowboys, monsters and spiders close behind, and a costume your dog already knows how to wear is far more likely to make it into the photos.

Costume styles in this range

Hooded dinosaur costumes turn a dog into a small dinosaur with spikes along the back and a hood with eyes. The plush dinosaur harness costume doubles as a working harness, so you can clip a leash on for parades. A hooded dinosaur raincoat works on wet Halloween nights.

The cowboy rider costume puts a small plush rider on your dog's back, and the cowboy hat and bandana set is a lighter option. The spider costume adds legs to the chest and back. A spotted monster jumpsuit, a nurse outfit with a cap and a pet wig round out the range.

Will your dog tolerate it

The ASPCA recommends not putting a dog in a costume unless you know they enjoy it, and skipping it if they seem stressed. Watch for a tucked tail, flattened ears, freezing, lip licking or trying to scratch the costume off.

Choose costumes that match your dog's comfort level. A dog that dislikes clothing may be happy in a bandana set or a harness costume that feels like gear they already wear, while a dog used to coats may accept a full jumpsuit.

Fit and safety

The ASPCA advises avoiding costumes that restrict movement, vision, breathing or the ability to bark, and removing small, dangling or easily chewed pieces that could be swallowed. Try the costume on well before the day to catch loose parts and tight spots.

Measure your dog's neck, chest and back length and check the size chart. Hoods should not cover the eyes or press on the ears. Never leave a dog alone in a costume, and keep human costume props, candy and glow sticks well out of reach.

Making Halloween calm

Halloween night is noisy and strange for dogs: doorbells, masks and children in costumes. Many dogs are happier in a quiet room with a chew than at the front door, even if they wore a costume for photos earlier.

Keep candy, especially chocolate and anything with xylitol, far away. If your dog eats candy, wrappers or part of a costume, call your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435; a consultation fee may apply.

What is the funniest dog costume?

Dinosaurs, cowboy riders, spiders and spotted monsters are perennial favorites. Pick one your dog is comfortable wearing.

How do I know if my dog is comfortable in a costume?

Watch body language. A tucked tail, flat ears, freezing or scratching at the costume mean it should come off.

What size costume does my dog need?

Measure neck, chest and back length and compare with the size chart. If your dog is between sizes, choose the larger.

Are dog costumes safe?

Yes, if they do not restrict movement, sight or breathing, have no chewable small parts, and your dog is supervised.

Can my dog wear a costume with a leash?

Choose a harness costume or one with a leash opening, so you can walk safely at parades and on trick-or-treat walks.
