Step 1
Choose a costume that doesn’t have to be slipped over your pet’s head. If it has to be, see to it that the neck of the costume is large enough to slip over comfortably.
-
Step 2
Make sure the costume doesn’t constrict your pet’s movement. It shouldn't be too tight or too long to walk in.
-
Step 3
See to it that the costume doesn’t interfere with your pet's vision, hearing or ability to breathe.
-
Step 4
Remove any parts that your pet could chew off or choke on.
-
Step 5
Keep the costume as minimal as possible. How about attaching a whiskey barrel to your Lab's collar and letting her go as a Saint Bernard? Or dress up as veterinarian and patient, so that your pet could go as himself.

on 10/8/2008 This is all so true, and in my opinion, pets shouldn't be made to wear human clothes. If they need them, they wouldn't have fur. But for those people who find it otherwise, thanks for writing this article 5*

on 10/8/2008 One additional tip is to make sure the costume does not interfere with your pet's ability to "go potty." (i.e. They don't end up peeing on it!)
