🎃🐾 Halloween costumes can be fun for us, but scary for our pets! Can you tell if your furry friend is comfortable in a costume? 👀
If your pet isn’t a fan of elaborate costumes, try cute bandanas, themed collars, or simple coat-like costumes.
Costume safety tips:
• Shouldn’t limit mobility, sight, or hearing.
• Avoid pieces that can be chewed off and swallowed.
• Watch your pet’s body language – pacing, moving slowly, shaking, hunching, and ear and tail position can all signal your pet is uncomfortable.
Getting your pet ready:
• Start practicing now, pairing the costume with high value treats.
• Introduce noisy closures (like velcro) separately.
• Gradually increase the time they wear it each day.
If your pet repeatedly refuses to participate, that's ok!!! They might just prefer going costume-free! 🙃
