Happy Howl-a-ween Puppies
The DailyPuppy wishes you and your pooch a very Happy Halloween! To help celebrate, we are featuring adorable puppies in costumes! We hope that these cute photos help bring Halloween spirit to you and your puppies.
I'm so glad this is not a contest because all of them would get my vote! You all are so dog-gone CUTE!!xoxo
Cool outfit Darth Puppy! Have a nice Howl-a-Ween 11 biccys for you, Darthy! Lol xxxxx belly rubs too
What a great concept for the day - well done daily puppy! Oh my word! How can you pick from all these sinfully cute puppies. This one is ridiculous hence why I picked it. I think the little golden Witch is awesome as well, and I nearly picked the little wolf in sheep's clothing as heartbreakingly cute. Congrats to all of the silly fur mums and dads who submitted such fun pics -- Happy Howl-a-ween all
Oh my beautiful little baby - by far the best of the bunch. All the biscuits in the world sweetheart and the biggest hugs and cuddles ever. I am totally in love.
they all loooks sooo cuute!! but i like thiis white one, it looks like going to party right!!
What am I wearing? Really these humans whatever next? So many biscuits for all the cute pups, it was hard choosing a favourite.
A hot dog, love it! They all look gorgeous, and some seriously good costumes going on! xxxx :)
Oh come on people, no dogs have been harmed by this - stop taking life too seriously!!
the look on this guys face in PRICELESS! what a cutie and that hat is hysterical!! i like Pup Vadar but this one is too much. LOVES it!
They're all CUTE. Those of you who think this is some form of cruelty - whassup w/that? If the owners made them run around like this for entire day.., maybe. Prob. just long enough for photos. But dogs wear sweaters when it's cold out - is that cruel??
thank you puppies and daily puppy for these wonderful pictures. this one looks like my dog. wish he had this costume. instead he is going as a police officer complete with hat and toy gun and toy cuffs. he enjoys all the attention, biscuits and bodily warmth he gets when hes wearing his costume on a cold halloween night.....
Hope the negative posters are as busy in places where there IS actual animal abuse. These dogs are not humiliated or abused. I don't dress my dogs, and am disgusted by animal abuse, but I see none here. Lighten up, for heaven's sake - this was likely a 10 minute bit of attention for the dog with a photo shoot at the end.
This pic is an oxymoron! A sweet beautiful golden in a witch's costome. For shame LOL. This is a beautiful animal, and all the pups look cute. Happy Howling!!!
As the owner of this dog, teddy, and the first one, Honey (the duck) - you only see a second of their life in their photos here. In both instances, the dogs were getting (a) treats, (b) losts of positive attention and (c) were wearing the costumes less than the time it takes to hear your local weather report. No harm was done to mine or any of the dogs here.
They are all so cute it is hard to choose! Happy Halloween and I am sure all of these pups were happy with the extra attention the got!! They all look well loved and happy!
This pup is adorable and doesn't look annoyed at all. Its wearing it's lovely ladybug costume with pride. I personally don't dress my dog because he hates it and the first time we tried to put a sweater on he just squirmed his way out of it. If a dog doesn't want to wear a costume, they will find a way out of it; period. Most look like they tolerate it like "sigh, what are my parents up to now?" and others love the attention they get when they are dressed up.
Thank you for including this photo of Honey as a Duck and Teddy, the Hot Dog. They are very honored to be here. They are also featured in the Disney Family web site for their contest of photos of Halloween dogs. Their photos are not in the contest for this year - just used as samples. http:// family.go.com/dog-costume-contest/& #13; Thanks .
This is my dog. Last year, he dressed up for an event where children are brought to the college campus where I work to trick-or-treat in safety. He was in costume for about two hours and loved all the attention. As a volunteer with a pet rescue group, I'm well aware of what is abusive and would never put anything harmful near my little guy. Thanks to Daily Puppy for this delightful post and to all the owners for the wonderful pictures!
ive read some of the commentary and im glad the puppies are more easy-going than the commenters. I do know that dogs do have emotions and do express them and will let you know whether or not wearing a costume is ok with them. the comment about being mommy to a dog is offensive because some people cant have children of the human kind, and then there are some like me that know that they are meant to be parents for children of the furry kind exclusively. my cockapoo thrives in the attention he gets from his costume. on the other hand, my previous dog would let you know in no uncertain terms that he wont be wearing a costume---ever. just tune in. these puppy owners did and sent in these wonderful pix.
Picking a favorite from this bunch was VERY HARD!!!! They are all adorable! Thanks Daily Puppy for these cuties and for always starting my day with a smile!
They r all wonderful!!! However, doesn't it look like this little one is thinking "you have got to be kidding me". Happy Halloween to all of u, and remember don't eat to many puppy treats.
Baa baa, I am a dog in sheeps clothing. It was verrrrrry dificult to pick a favorite picture. They are all great. I picked this one because dogs are decenents of wolves. I am sure this adorable puppy is definatly not a wolf in sheeps clothing but a sweet and lovable pup. Thanks for sharing these cute pics with us.
The dogs are just dressed up for a little while for a photo op. My guess is they don't LIVE like this and I think people that go a little overboard for the most part love and adore their pets or they wouldn't be giving them the time of day. Owners are allowed to have a little fun. My dog doesn't like getting a bath but guess what, he gets one.
I am a "MOM" of several rescue dogs and pups, and taking care and loving them is exactly like being a MOM in every way. And yes I do love them like they are my "kids,"....they depend on me and look to me for all of their needs,...love, food, "doctor" visits, play time, "correction" moments, and just time spent with them like "family" time. After all, dogs are "pack" animals,...they like being with their owners and being together. I also work with animal abuse cases,...If they saw true abuse cases, it would bring on a real feeling of sickness and anger that they clearly have no clue about. I dress our pets up for photos and memories and "fun" times....my pets don't seem to mind at all...I have had pets that did not like to "dress up", therefore I did not do it...believe me, your pet will let you know what it likes and does not like. You should be happy that all of these little "cuties" have good homes with owners who love and care for them, and spend time with them. There are so many animals out there that don't have the hope of even one more day, and would LOVE to be included in these homes and activities. Spend some time looking into REAL abuse cases,...I think you would change your "tune" real fast. Thank you Daily Puppy for these sweet photos, and thank you to all the loving owners who spend time with their pets!
Thanks Daily Puppy for a special Halloween treat... all these puppies are adorable! I think it's cute that people want to share fun with their pups, and I'm sure they are not suffering any cruelty. If you don't agree with dressing up your dogs then just don't do it, but certainly lighten up. Dogs have a sense of humor. You do know that when they growl at you while playing tug-of-war, they're only kidding, don't you?
They all look so cute! This guy has the best get up, the way the helmet is sitting on top of his head is TOO FUNNY!! Happy Howl-a-ween all!!
I should have been a cowboy....to rope & ride......TOO CUTE. ALL THESE PICTURES HAVE MADE MY DAY!!!!!! :)
How would a puppy show that they are happy or "thrilled" in a photo? The camera can't catch a wagging tail. What's more, most dogs (those with flatter faces being an exception) have their mouths closed when they are at rest. When you see pictures of dogs "smiling", they're often just panting, an action that doesn't have any emotion source.
Wow this was just one wonderful photo after the next... I glad it wasn't a contest either. This is why I love dogs so much. They constantly bring a smile to your day.
I doubt very much that these dogs are feeling any pain, discomfort or degradation. Let's not become the moral majority imposing our contrived morals on others. I bet these dogs eat better than any of you. If you want to be outraged than go help out in a shelter. There are plenty of abused, neglected and unwated animals there who would love your attention and concern on abuse. Happy halloween.
I think the key in the debate here is respecting your individual pet, as well as each other. Both sides are expressing their affection for animals, whether or not you agree with how they do so. Please recognize this and be kind, not belittling, in your response. Personally, while I do not feel it is "abuse" I do think that most pets do not enjoy dressing up. At best these furkids do not understand what is happening, at worst they may feel "humiliated". If this is the case with your pet I would ask you to think whether your amusement should trump their unease. After all, other activities your pet may dislike but you do such as bathing, giving medicine, etc. are at least partially for their benefit. Is this? On the other hand, if your pet loves dressing up and the attention that comes with it, go ahead and costume them to your heart's content. Just remember the biscuits!
Love the wheaten puppy. Connor, 11 year old corgi, wore Vote yes on Prop 8 signs here in California. Connor loved the attention, the "work", and all the pats, at a rally near us. It was a fun event and a new experience in an old dog's very good life. Once in a while is o.k.
Ok, how can you not like the little hot dog? He's so adorable! Hundreds of biscuits for all of you!
The ladybird puppy with the pumpkin (with the rockweiler-ish colours) looks identical to my dog. But we don't know what breed he is, does any one know? P.S. These pictures are so adorably cute, all of them
Oh my gosh!!! These are all too cute! I wanted to comment on the ducky pic, it was my favorite, but this was my second favorite- I love them all! So cute!
I LOVE the pics , they are all cute and there is nothing wrong with them. People need to put they're negative responses to something useful, like animal abuse. 11 biscuits for all pups!!! :D Happy Halloween everyone!
The ducky is soooo cute! xox! Biscuits for all..... P.S...can anyone tell me how you put a puppy picture on your comment? thanks... :0)
So cute! All of them. Happy Halloween to all the pups and I hope you get lots of treats (but not the chocolate kind).
OMG did you guys ever see "The Birds" by Alfred Hitchcock!! I saw this dog dressed up once like it had all these birds on him and when he walked around it looked like they were pecking him and they put fake blood on him and it was really gross but really creative and I couldn't really tell if the dog liked it or not but that movie is really good and I don't like birds anymore. But really that "sheriff" looks miserable! I know dogs hate it when they have little people pretending to ride them. Anyway I hope giving you all 11 biscuits can help. P.S. Did you every see that dog costume where it is a beagle and they made it look like he is being eaten by a alligator, it is excellent and very creative!
These dogs are not being mistreated and there is nothing wrong with dressing them up for a few minutes.And the mommy/daddy comment was just plain mean-spirited. Lighten up indeed.And happy Halloween to all!
What a great idea. I wish I had picture to put up of my dogs intheir costumes. They look as cute as these little guys do!
People PLEEEESE! These dogs are far from mistreated!! Only someone who loves to have fun with their puppies would go through the coaxing and treats to get these pix!And jo-louise7 I think it's a mini Doxie, looks just like my little Doodie. Have a happy Halloween everyone. An P.S. some children aren't treated as well as the pups pictured here!
Oh the indignities I must endure to make my family happy. Later I shall munch on someone's shoe. How I love the forever mellow Golden.
There are ways to disagree politely and respectfully. We are all here because we love animals - and people are animals too -so can we please show each other some love? No one here has claimed that any of these dogs are abused. They have suggested that not all of them may enjoy dressing up. Even if you disagree with that sentiment is there really something wrong with someone having, and expressing, that view? I do volunteer at a shelter, socializing shy and submissive dogs to prepare them for adoption. Many have been abused or neglected. I do not believe that anyone at Daily Puppy would do that to their pet. I do, however, see us being abusive to each other. Please forgive me my rant, but as this comes during a highly divisive time in my country, I am fed up with the incivility that has become commonplace. We all love dogs, on this we agree. When we disagree can we please, please, please be courteous? If just to get me off my soapbox. Thank you.
I love this little guy, too. Not sure if it is a b/w gsp, but looks so similar to mine. I came home a few days ago to find him sitting with the kids dressed as Hannah Montana, complete with long blonde wig. He was just hanging out with them. I cracked up and the look he gave me made me think that he thought that I was crazy. Enjoy the day. Lovely to see the positive and supportive posts in this community.
I thought I'd posted a reply comment about 4 hours ago - but must have pressed a wrong button???? Wanted to say - never intended for people to feel personally offended by any of my remarks - I like this site precisely because is it not nasty on the whole - we're all dog lovers. Am possibly a bit sensitive about the Mommy thing - as someone who likes, but never wanted, children I get really riled when people talk about my dog as though she's some kind of child substitute - yes I was a bit thoughtless the way I expressed that - as well as my abysmal spelling - I think I'll return to my vow of never entering into web debate territory - too hard to get the tone right. But I did want to say that here in East London the whole Halloween/Bonfire Night thing is a complete pain, we Brits don't havre the tradition, and on the whole parents don't want their kids knocjkong on stangers' doors in hackney :-) it's not fun, family, kids etc - just a whole month or so of kids letting off fireworks in the street at all hours, terrifying the dogs and cats. Last night was another night of my cats cowering under the furniture - fortunately my gorgeous little Schaunzer is completely unfazed by it. Also, finally, never meant to imply that people dressing their dogs up were in any way abusing or being cruel to them - OK, I think it's wrong for lots of reasons but not that. Have a Happy Halloween everyone
Snow White never looked prettier. Great photos. I always enjoy seeing pets in costumes. :-)
The cutest! The poor thing looks terribly stressed though. Lighten up! I am sure any dog would love the kind of attention he is getting from his obviously loving family! If you want to do something about abuse, go volunteer at the shelter. These dogs are well loved and cared for.
get along now, li'l doggeh! sheriff fluffybutt, the fast draw in the west! depcutey dog! OMGOMGOMG i LUF it!
First of all, it is not cheap to purchase or make these adorable costumes. People that "abuse" their dogs won't even buy them food let alone drop $30 bucks on a custume that at best is on the dog 15 min. As a MOM of 2 cattle dogs I can tell you if the dog doesnt enjoy playing dress up he will NOT tolerate it!! MY older cattle dog loves to wear clothes. She struts around the house like a queen. She once wore a t-shirt for 3 days before I had to take it from her. She wanted it back. ASAP Now my ACD puppy bareley lets me put a collar on him. None of these dogs are being mistreated. All dogs should be so lucky to have "MOM's and DAD's" that love them!!!
They are all so adorable! I agree with "packermom"; it would be impossible to pick a winner! God bless all these precious pups! Much love from me, my dogs, Annie and Bear on Halloween! XOXOXO
It's still true that one hand washes the other in this life even if our dogs don't understand those words. We do things for them that we don't want to do (going outside to potty in the middle of the night, walking when we're really tired, etc). In turn they do things for us like wearing a costume for a few minutes, accepting a bath, etc. A few minutes in a costume is a small price to pay for a lifetime of love and good care. I'm sure each of these beautiful dogs would agree. Happy Halloween to all readers and their beloved dogs from Vandal and Missy who are wearing their Howl-a-Ween bandanas.
Heavens - what a can of worms I opened this morning...! I posted this morning because my opinion is that the dressing up of dogs is something which should not be encouraged. I did not say (or mean to imply) that to dress up a dog is necessarily abusive, nor did I say that any of the dogs whose photos are featured on the site today look in any way harmed by it. Of course, this does not mean that putting a costume onto a docile and well-adjusted dog for the time it takes to pose for a couple of photos will turn that animal into a monster. However I genuinely do feel very uncomfortable when I see the images - simply because this dressing up idea (especially halloween dressing up) is really a childrens thing - not a dog thing. I think dogs should be allowed to be dogs
Thanks for sharing such adorable pictures it was hard to pic just one but this i thought was just to cute to pass up.
i do not agree with the protesters. i have a yellow labrador "Sunni" and she loves it when she gets dressed up. as an example, last night, i bought her a halloween bandana for her to wear tonight. she pranced around, rubbing up against everyone, and her tail went crazy because everyone was telling her she was pretty and kept petting her. when it was time to take it off (so it didnt get dirty) she followed me around whimpering because she wanted it back. in cases like that, i dont see anything wrong with dressing up a dog. as long as the costume's not too tight or uncomfortable for the dog, and the dog doesnt fight it, there should be no problem. and it is the owners decision to dress up the dog. if you dont like it, then dont look at it. leave the rest of us who like to make our special friends look good( especially when they enjoy it) alone.
These pups are adorable with or without costumes...but I'm sure much more comfortable without them. Happy Halloween...and lots of treats for all of you!
I believe this is a Min-Pin. The Lady Bug looks just like my Min-Pin. It is very cute. He wouldn't stay still long enough for a picture.
Love this picture!!!! Looks like my Stevie. She always has sad eyes even when she is happy. Thank you all for the lovely pictures of you puppies and give them extra kisses and hugs today.
Hello Sweetie. You are sure a cute little "Howl-o-Weener." You don't look disturbed at all wearing the hat and dude on your back. Have fun, baby. Hugs & smooches from Elizabeth & Miss Katie =O)
they all look so cute! my dog doesn't like wearing anything so i don't force him, but i think it's so fun when they dress up for the holidays :) trust me...they will rip it off if they don't want it on, and the ones who keep it on love the attention. my boss has 2 huge dogs who dress up for the kids in the neighborhood and they LOVE all the attention they get from photos to hugs and kisses from all the kids! relax....it's for a couple of hours one night out of the year. that does not constitute animal cruelty. have fun tonight :)
They are all adorable...too hard to choose just one. I am astounded at just how nasty some people can be expressing their opinions. Obviously my choice of name on here offends some people...such a shame. All the puppies look very loved (it takes time to put these looks together). Hugs and biscuits to all of the puppies...ADORABLE! To those who logged in just to make nasty comments, it's so sad that you are driven by negativity and didn't log in just to share your, hopefully, beloved pet.
Yay first comment. And sooooo cutes. 11 bones!
