How to put on my dog’s halloween jumper
The simple answer is treats, treats, treats! Firstly make sure your dog is comfortable and relaxed, feed some treats as soon as the jumper comes out. Simply slip the jumper over their head. Once their head pops out, feed some more high value treats, maybe some chicken! Gently slip their arms through each arm hole. Make sure that the jumper isn’t tight when doing this, as you want them to be as comfortable as possible.
The bottom line
If you’re looking for an adorable costume alternative for your pet this halloween then a halloween jumper could be a great idea! If you’re a spooky season fan, then why not dress your dog up in the jumper all year round with the cold weather?
