Halloween Hounds: Oliver Becomes Captain Jack Sparrow

by Carrie Boyko, CEB

Retired!

Doggie Dreadlocks are apparently not Oliver's idea of fun. After snapping a few photos, we had to remove the hat, which admittedly was a size or two large for him.

At 10 lbs. he could have pulled off an extra small, but actually is a true Small. This costume was a medium--more for a Beagle or a Cocker. We made the body work with a little creative overlapping, but the hat was another story.

I'm thinking maybe a dew rag for to go with this Halloween costume. What do you think?

Are you ready for Mutt Monday? It's Halloween so I think we should all post our pup's costume photos. You can link up any pet post you like, though. Join us for an anything goes pet hop:
