If your dog is a dalmatian’s, the natural black-and-white coat makes the perfect base for a cow costume. 

All you need are a pair of floppy cow ears (felt or a headband works great) and a few pink balloons attached safely near your dog’s tummy to mimic a cow’s udder. 


 7. Dog in sheep clothing 

To recreate this sweet and simple costume, start with a soft, white T-shirt or a baby onesie for your pup.

Then glue or sew fluffy cotton balls or bits of faux fur all over it for that woolly feel. Add a little headband with tiny felt sheep ears to finish the look.

This easy costume is lightweight, comfy, and guaranteed to make everyone crave a campfire snack the second they see your Chocolate Lab looking deliciously cute.

Cut two pieces of light brown cardboard, and attach them gently to each side of your dog’s body with soft straps or ribbon. Add a white layer (felt, fabric, or even a pillowcase) for the “marshmallow,” and place a strip of dark brown fabric or foam on top for the “chocolate.”


 5. Woof Loaf Costume

Imagine dressing up your dog as a loaf of bread. All you need is a piece of felt to wrap gently around your pup, leaving their head(and maybe their tail) peeking out. 

You can even add a lightweight fabric “bread crust” along the edges for extra detail. This costume is perfect for dogs because it's low-key, and perfect for doing a treat or two.

To recreate this bright, silly, and funny costume, use a soft yellow T-shirt as the base, then glue or stitch lightweight yellow feathers (or feathered fabric) all over to create that iconic fluffy look.
