Doggie Day Camp 2008
Always remember dressing up is not a usual routine for your pet, while dogs always aim to please their owners, they might however still show a little fear in an uncertain situation. Some people even recommend that you take your dog to the Dog Park, or on a long walk prior to dressing them up. This way they will be tired and a little more relaxed. You want to make this a fun time for everyone involved, even the dog. You are enjoying dressing them up and seeing people's reaction, let your dog enjoy them self also, make this a rewarding and fun experience for all involved. Remember all of those tricks you learned in basic obedience? Have your dog come to you, sit an stay, etc. He will remember how happy the two of you were during training, and want to continue to please, and have fun. For more recommendations on Dressing your pet for Halloween you can visit the ASPCA. They offer some good tips for the basic safety of your pets during this time.
