Hi, I am Lucy McCausland from AKA Spot. We are a dog store in Arlington, Virginia. We are here today to talk about how to dress your dog for Halloween. Right now, I am going to tell you about the minimalist approach to the costume contest or parade that you might want to enter this year.
As we know, every dog does not enjoy getting dressed up in the costume, but you still may want to go out and have some fun and be a part of the festivity. So, there are a couple of different ways to do that. I am here today with Lisa and Gracie, Jessica and Stuart big, and this is Beckett. Gracie is wearing a little Halloween bandana, all sizes, all colors; a lot of them are reversible. Stuart is wearing an attractive Halloween collar. They also come in many colors and sizes, and they are just really easy, and most dogs tolerate them pretty well. They are usually are stretchy band that just goes right over the dogs head like that, and then you can go on the parade with all your friends.
So, the main thing to remember is that whatever you use for the minimalist approach, it shouldnt choke or bind. The dog has to be able to perform all the bodily functions in the minimalist costume that it normally does. You should try the minimalist costume on and then go ahead and put your regular collar or harness and lead on and take a short dry run around the block and make sure that, that outfit is something that you are going to be able to live with.
So, anyway, thats how you approach Halloween with the minimalist costumes and have fun.
