Dressing Up Your Pet For Any Celebration

March 27, 2009

For many of us, our pets are part of our families. We love them dearly and want them to be included in all aspects of our lives. One way to do this is by including them in family celebrations and special events.

A great way to include your beloved pet in an event is to dress them up. Of course there are everyday pet clothes like sweaters and hats to keep them warm; especially the smaller and shorter haired breeds, but now, there are pet costumes that you can purchase that are perfect for any occasion and will make your pet the life of every party.

Christmas
If you’re hosting a Christmas party make sure to include your dog or cat by helping them look their Holiday best as well. You can find angel, elf or Santa costumes for your pet, or, maybe he needs just a simple red and green collar with jingle bells to join in the fun. Whatever you choose your pet will make a great addition to the party when he’s dressed in festive Holiday attire!

Halloween
On Halloween, many people take their pets trick or treating, or just have them dressed up to help greet the kids when they come to the door. There are unique pet costumes for Halloween all over the internet. Characters like Yoda and Batman are great for pets and kids alike, or you could go with classic ideas like “Count Dogula”, a skeleton, or a pumpkin costume for a more traditional look.

Wedding
Many people choose to include their pet in their wedding in some way; after all, for many couples their pet is their first “kid”. To help your pet really become part of the bridal party, there are pet costumes for both bride (complete with veil), and groom, as well as a simple black bow tie and collar for the larger breeds. Either way your furry friend will look fabulous for the wedding and will fit right in with the rest of the guests!

St. Patrick’s Day
If you’re marching in the St. Patty’s Day Parade or celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in another way and taking your pet with you, you can have them spread some good luck and cheer by dressing them up in their best green duds! There are some really fun leprechaun pet costumes as well as shamrock adorned hats and collars that are just perfect for having your dog or cat join in the festivities.

4th of July
The 4th of July is another favorite holiday to celebrate with a parade, and pets often take part. A unique pet costume can help your patriotic pooch send a fun message to the crowd. Look for stars and stripes top hats, Uncle Sam costumes and of course red white and blue bandannas to complete your pet’s Independence Day costume.

Birthday
When you’re hosting a birthday party, and want to dress up your pet, select a costume that goes with the theme of the birthday party. For example, if you’re holding a Princess themed party for your daughter or grand daughter, dress your pet up as a prince or princess too. Or, maybe you’re holding a 60s themed birthday party; you can get your dog an authentic looking hippy costume to wear! When your pet is dressed up and part of the celebration, the birthday party will have an extremely cute, furry guest in attendance!

Don’t leave your dog or cat out of the party, find the perfect pet costume and let your pet be the center of attention; which they always love! Plus, it’s just plain fun to include your pet in the festivities, and as you can see, whatever the occasion, there is an outfit or costume that will help them become a central part of the celebration.
