Dog costumes: nailing the photo without stressing your dog

A costume is worn for a photo, a party or a Halloween walk — not a whole evening. A dog doesn't understand why he's dressed up; he just notices his movement is restricted. Success comes down to choosing the model that restricts him the least.

In practice: no hood covering the eyes, nothing blocking the shoulders, nothing dangling between the legs. That's what separates a wearable costume from one your dog just puts up with, and it's how we pick our dog costumes.

Costume Père Noël Cavalier pour Chiens et Chats — tailles disponibles du S au XL

Fit, fastenings and freedom of movement: what to check

This one is made of wool, fleece and spandex. Red harness with an attached plush Santa, sizes S to XL available — measure chest girth and back length, never weight: two fifteen-kilo dogs don't have the same build. Check that the fastenings sit on the back, not under the belly – they go on and come off much faster. For a dog who can't bear anything on him, a Halloween spider costume for cats and small dogs gives the look without the hassle.

  • Measure chest girth and back length; this model: sizes S to XL available
  • Let him wear it for five minutes at home before the big day — never let him discover the costume outdoors
  • Check he can see, hear and open his mouth — the hood is the first thing to check
  • Take it off as soon as he freezes, scratches or refuses to move
  • Wash it after the party: hand clean recommended, air dry
  • Go for fastenings on the back — a dog costume that closes under the belly is a pain to put on
Détail de la matière : laine, polaire et spandex

How long to leave it on, and when to give up

The time rule is simple: the costume comes out for the occasion and goes away straight after. A dog who freezes, yawns over and over or tries to back away is telling you he's had enough — and pushing on teaches him nothing, except to run off the next time he sees the costume.

Never leave him in costume unsupervised, and especially not overnight: fabric that catches on furniture turns a joke into an accident. If you're mainly after the look, a bandana gets the same result on camera with far less bother.

A rule of thumb for choosing: look first at what the costume leaves FREE, not what it adds. The shoulders, eyes, mouth and base of the tail must move normally. An elaborate model that blocks any one of the four will be worn once, then never again.

FAQ

What if I have several cats?

Plan one per cat for anything to do with resting, eating and toileting. Forced sharing is the number one cause of tension in a multi-cat home.

Which size should I choose?

This model comes in S, M, L and XL. Measure the space you have in mind and, for a bed, your pet's length lying down plus about ten centimetres. Too snug and it won't get used; too big and it loses its reassuring feel.

How do I care for it?

Warm soapy water, with no scented products: a cat's sense of smell is far keener than ours, and a whiff of detergent is enough to make it avoid something it was using the day before.

What is it made of?

Wool, fleece and spandex. This material determines how to care for it: see the specifications for the right way to wash it.
