Halloween Traditions for Dog Lovers
I have seen everything from Chucky, Freddy Krueger, to a cousin dressing his dog up as a hot dog and he was the vendor! Funny stuff! LOL
Get a Spooky Toy
When it comes to Halloween between Pet Smart, Amazon, and other pet-friendly retailers. You can find all sorts of silly spooky Halloween chew toys for your pup! For example, they actually have a Penny Wise plush toy for dogs (check the price here!) Lots of people rave about it and since the movie IT is so popular in October it’s a fun dog toy to grab!
Scary Movie Snuggles
If you like Snuggies with your best friend! Then, there is nothing more fun than avoiding the crowds and watching a fun spooky movie together!
Pet Friendly Pumpkin Patch
If you and your dog are anything like us. You like pumpkin spice and everything nice. A fun outing to take your puppers to during this time of year is a pet-friendly pumpkin patch!
Doggy Halloween Party
If you want to treat your fur baby to their very own Halloween party than asking each attending guest to dress up will make the event that much more fun!
Decorate the House
Not only is it fun to decorate the house. Turn this Halloween season up a notch by decorating the dog’s house too!
🐶In fact, there’s a funny sign I seen (you can view it here) but it says, “Beware of the Wiggle Butts!” Such a perfect addition to any home of a dog lover!
