Halloween costumes for your pets

Not usually a big fan of costumes for my dog. Although every year my wife wants to dress our pup up as a vampire or some such thing.

"Oh honey, it's so cute!" She says.

"Grumble....crazy....grumble." I reply.

I tend to side with the dog....that is until I saw this cool three-headed dog costume. I may have to re-think my stand on dressing the dogs up for the holidays. I'm thinking my Shitzu could be Cerberus and I could be Hercules.

I wonder if Hercules had a pot belly?

Costumes for Dogs

Every year my wife wants to dress up our dogs in costumes. I'm not sure why as I don't think the dogs like it and she never takes them out trick-or-treating. If they could beg for little chocolate covered bones at the neighbors, it would make more sense to me. After my wife see's this tutorial on making Star Wars costumes for dogs, their little doggie lives will never be the same.

Gryphern YouTube Index

No Halloween week would be complete without looking at the YouTube video's put together by Gryphern out of Washington State. Gryphern is a graduate student (or possibly a graduated masters-type person by now..) that has put out many how-to videos over the past couple of years. Her instructions on how to create a werewolf costume first caught my attention last year and since then, I've been a frequent visitor to her YouTube page.

Check it out.
