Halloween is a pretty great holiday to share with your pet. Not only does every pup’s favorite word occur within its most popular exclamation, “trick or treat,” it is a day (…or week…or entire month) where a furry body running around in a little hot dog suit or carrying out an entire neighborhood watch shift, a.k.a. walk, wearing a skeleton outfit is not considered absurd.

Meet a few of our Denver and Boulder pet pals who are donning their best dog (and cat!) Halloween costumes in the spirit of the spooky!

Berkeley, age 4, purebred Berzerker, decided to go as a ski racer for Halloween this year. Here she is trying on her costume, just moments before walking into a wall. Berkeley was fine, but the wall is damaged.

Layla, age 9, breed “furry”, has chosen, once again, to go as a pillow for Halloween. Layla decided on this costume many years ago and chooses to go as a pillow every Halloween, and every other day of the year, too.

Sweet Pea (left) & Duncan (right), breeds “chug” and big bad wolf, sporting a tremendously fitting dual costume. And, they didn’t even realize it was Halloween.

What are your four-legged kiddos dressing up as for Halloween?
