Hello Pug lovers! Our favorite time of year is coming! Halloween is a great time to dress our Pugs up in adorable costumes.
The important thing is to make sure that your dog is happy. The simpler the outfit or costume the better the chance is that your dog will wear it without trying to take it off right away.
Too many bells and whistles can equal torture for your pup. We want to all have a happy and safe Halloween!

If you’re handy with a sewing machine, you could hit a thrift store and alter a toddler suit. If you are busy with work, you could also just buy a costume.

This costume is terrifying. You don’t even need the claw. Any time I see a red and khaki green striped sweater I instantly think Freddy Krueger.
You can probably find a small sweater in a thrift store to alter. The hat is optional depending on your pooch.

A Few Things To Keep In Mind With Pug Costumes
Just remember that dogs do not dress up in the wild. They don’t celebrate holidays. A lot of dogs seem perfectly content dressing up and partying with their humans. Some appear utterly miserable.
Please don’t force your Pug to do anything they don’t want to do! If your pup doesn’t like wearing costumes, don’t force it. A simple bow-tie will make any Pug adorable with little to no discomfort.
Costumes should never limit mobility or vision. Be careful to avoid anything that wraps around the neck.
Avoid any costume that:
- covers the face or impairs vision
- could make your dog too hot
- makes it difficult for your dog to walk or limits mobility
- makes your pooch appear unhappy
Be safe and have a Happy Halloween!
