Do Dogs Like Wearing Costumes?
Before you parade your pup around in his costume, let’s just make sure that he is happy.
Although some dogs enjoy or are indifferent to being dressed up, others can find it very stressful.
Watch out for signals that he is unhappy.
Flattened ears and a lack of wag in the tail are signs to watch out for. If he shies away or scratches it off, then go with his decision.
Most dogs are quite happy to be dressed up, but it isn’t kind to carry on if he’s not. It needs to be fun for you both!
