Ideas for Matching Dog and Owner Costumes

Bored of the same old doggie Halloween costumes and looking to step things up? Dress up with your pet! We’ve got a few adorable ideas for making a fun and memorable holiday.

10 Ideas for Matching Halloween Costumes

·         Big Bad Wolf
Your friends will eat up this little ensemble. If your dog looks like a wolf (or your happy hound will wear a costume), this is an easy costume to assemble. All it takes for Little Red Riding Hood is a red hooded cape, dress, and a basket.

·         Wizard of Oz
This costume is fantastic for families who want to join in on the fun. Hint: Find your pet’s costume first, working in Dorothy, Cowardly Lion, Scarecrow, and Tin Man. Need a few extras? Don’t forget the Wicked Witch of the West, the munchkins, and flying monkeys.

·         Reindeer & Santa
Give yourself the gift that keeps on giving (Halloween and Christmas). Dress your dog up as a reindeer and pick up a festive Santa suit.

·         Harry Potter
A plethora of costume opportunities awaits here. Dress up your dog as a delivery owl, or choose your favorite Hogwarts' character.

·         Pokémon
Dress your dog as Pikachu (available online), and yourself as Ash. All it takes is a denim vest, white shirt, and red hat.

·         Little Mermaid
Don your pooch in a crab or lobster costume, and unleash your inner Ariel. This costume is easily made with a purple tank or swim top, glittery green skirt, and red wig.

·         Aladdin
Sure to be a popular choice this year, wrap your ferocious dog in a tiger costume, pairing it with a matching Jasmine and/or Aladdin costume.

·         Minions
They’re small, cute, hyper, and about as well behaved as you and your dog, so why not dress up as Minions this Halloween? Affordable and fun, this ensemble is easy to buy on the fly.

·         Hot Dog/Vendor
Put your wiener dog to work in a hot dog costume, posing as a vendor with an apron and server hat.

·         Beer & Pizza
Junk foodie? Take your pooch on a gastronomic Halloween adventure, pairing a pepperoni dog costume with your choice of adult beer getup. Other fun food options include wine and cheese or waffles and eggs. You’ll go nuts over the variety.
