Sep 16, 2009
Here are some of the best cheap dog costumes for Halloween 2009. Dog Halloween costumes can be unique and inexpensive like: Pimp Dog, Princess Dog, Prisoner Dog, Patriotic Tea Party Dog, Sailor Dog, Bumble Bee, and more.
Looking for Chanukah or Christmas dog fashion? OK. OK. But, first see a cute disco dog video.
Under $10
For real economy, try getting a quick and cheap outfit at an "on sale" price. Or buy a dog hat or some dog accessory, and use that as the whole costume, or add something simple like a bandana to complete the look. A self-made or home-made costume will be truly unique.
Fresh Flowers Hat at GlamourDog.com (Clearance Section):
Add a purple bandana, make a tie on skirt, and add some cheap jewelry. Or make a price tag and hang it down from the hat and it’s a Minnie Pearl Costume. Look this up if unfamiliar with the look.
A Bow tie from SuperStarPetLovers ($3) can be the basis for several costumes with a bit of imagination. Wikipedia has a “List of Bow Tie Wearers” including:
- Bill Nye
- Pee Wee Herman
- Groucho Marx

Unique Costumes
A truly unique costume can be made with a simple bow tie, hair products, and body paint. For example, Groucho Marx needs a “mustache”. A Pee Wee Herman Dog needs his hair slicked down. Even a suit could be painted onto a Pee Wee Dog, but try it ahead of time. Or, get heavy white paper to make cuffs for a Chippendale dog.
SuperStarPetLovers.com has a Patriotic Bandana which would be great for a Tea Party Dog. They have a lot of cheap accessories which are found by searching for “hats”. Their Bark For Green Scarf could have plastic bottles or cans tied around the pup’s waist to make Recycling Dog. Make sure the bottles don’t jangle and scare the little guy.
