Halloween should be fun and festive for the whole crew—and that includes them when your “ride or die” person is your dog! I know you're busy planning your epic Halloween costume - I understand, these are very important decisions. That’s why I’ve done some work for you and rounded up some of the funniest small dog Halloween costumes that are both adorable and affordable. If you have a puppy, they've probably gone everywhere with you, so it only makes sense that they should live and breathe the Halloween spirit as well.
Keep in mind that although they look cute in full Halloween costumes, not all dogs enjoy wearing costumes – and for some, it can be really uncomfortable! So make sure you pay attention to your furry companion's body language and don't become a total nightmare-stage mom or dad and force them to wear something they don't like. The dogs first, the cute costumes second.
That said, some dogs may be frustrated by a simple headgear, while others may feel cold in tight clothing (or both!). Regardless, there are plenty of options—and they're all equally cute. Without further ado, here are some super easy and cute small dog Halloween costumes that won’t break the bank (and look great in all your dog selfies).
