Who is that Masked Pet? Planning to play up your pup’s comb-over or superhero looks this Halloween? He may act like he hates the costume, but you know the truth. Anything that produces treats in mass quantities will be tops with your dog. (Just remember to stick to dog treats, no candy for your little pumpkin.)
 
Don’t be surprised if you see lots of furry looking devils, pumpkins, witches, princesses, pirates and hot dogs (yes, hot dogs) this year. Those were among the top 10 Pet Costumes for 2007 according to the National Retail Federation’s Halloween Consumer Intentions and Actions Survey.

To help you decide on your pet’s costume, we sniffed out all of the online costume shops. Our judging criteria allowed for extreme cuteness, average comfort, and no weird, creepy hand appendages (just a personal preference). Here are our top picks available online for delivery before Halloween.

Cowboy Rider. Doggone it! With its adjustable dog harness with attached cowboy in a saddle, it’s no wonder this costume is out of stock almost everywhere. Lasso yours today.
