Bumble Bee Costume
Gretta, my miniature dachshund puppy, was actually quite comfortable in her little bumble bee costume. I picked this cute costume up at Target, but there is a similar one on Amazon as well. This costume was easy to put on my puppy and allowed her to walk with no issue.
Little Rainbow Costume
This adorable little rainbow was our costume of choice for Eko when he was a small puppy. It fit our Dachshund puppy perfectly.
Witch Dog Costume
Reno, my miniature Dachshund, is sporting a black witch’s hat and jester collar. This costume was super easy to put on my dog. He didn’t even mind sitting for a quick picture.
King’s Royal Costume
A royal king’s costume is so appropriate for our doxies, isn’t it? Dachshunds believe they rule over everyone! Amazon has a crown and royal shirt available, very similar to this design.

Alternative Costume: Bandana
If your doxie isn’t the costume wearing type, try a small dog Halloween bandana instead. These little gems are super cute for the entire fall season. Whether you are on a walk or attending a Halloween party, your doxie can still look festive.

Halloween Safety Tips for Your Dog
Secure Your Dog:
Whether your dog is dressed up in a Halloween costume or not, make sure your dog has their ID tag and collar on or has a microchip. If your dog gets spooked, they may run away. At least this way, they can be easily identified and safely returned to you.
Keep your dog secured and away from the door when you are handing out candy to trick or treaters.
Halloween Toxins:
Food: If your dog accidentally eats decorative Indian corn or a moldy pumpkin, they could get a nasty stomach ache. Watch them carefully.
Flowers: Mums are a gorgeous flower many of us like to display around the house in the fall. Don’t let your dog eat any mums, according to ASPCA, mums are toxic to dogs, cats, and horses.
Candy: Dogs can easily sniff out pieces of candy if they are within reach. Keep all candy away from your pup.
Symptoms of chocolate poisoning: vomiting, diarrhea, rapid breathing, increased heart rate, and seizures. Take your pup to the vet immediately if they consume any Halloween treats.

Halloween Decorations:
Halloween decorations can be hazardous to your dog. Keep electrical cords, cobwebs, and spooky dangling décor up high enough and secured so your dog can’t reach them.
Glow Sticks: Keep glow sticks away from dogs. Luckily, most glow stick liquid is non-toxic, but can still make your dog very sick.
Unfamiliar Faces in Costume:
Halloween costumes make familiar people look very different to your dog. Be aware that your new spooky look may frighten them.
When we had a Halloween party, my dog, Bastian, didn’t recognize us and went right into a seizure. I felt horrible! We now keep him in a secure and quiet area during Halloween events.

Put Your Dog’s Halloween Name Answer in the Comments Below!
I was about to say, ‘what, no hotdog?’ then there it was. I have to say the spider is my favourite though I wonder how comfortable it is. It will likely win a few contests though.
Hi Sherri! Oh yes, haha, I couldn’t forget about the Hotdog dog halloween costume, especially for the dachshunds. The spider dog costume is super cool. I agree with you, not sure how comfy it would be, but super unique in a halloween costume contest.
These costumes are so adorable! I especially love the shark and the spider. I also love how you included some Halloween safety tips at the end of the articles. Many dog parents don’t realize how scary this holiday can often be for dogs.
Hi Molly, thank you very much. The shark dog halloween costume is definetly one of my favorites as well. I just wish Reno would have liked it a little more. Thank you, the Halloween safety tips for dogs will hopefully help pet owners be more understanding towards their frightened furry friends.
These costumes are so funny! Oh my goodness the spider! Love them. A sensible side with the safety advice too.
Hi Melanie, thank you so much. Yes, dachshunds in Halloween Dog Costumes are really hilarious. I can’t wait to see what I can find for next year. Thanks for sharing.
