Howdy, Sports Fans! It’s Halloween again. The one time of year when you can truly get away with forcing your dog to promote your favorite sport. Whether you’re an armchair quarterback or an ultimate fighter, we’ve got something here for every athlete and their pup mascot!

1. Gridiron Cuties:

Pig skin season is upon us, and lucky for all you football fans, the cute canine costumes abound! Your pooch can be a ref, a player, or even the ball itself!

3. Court Side Canines:

Basketball requires a lot of finesse and a lot of style. Think your pup has what it takes to rock a B-ball costume?

4. Field of Dreams:

Baseball is an American tradition. How does your dog look in a ball cap? Extra points if you can get him to wear knee socks!

5. Blades of Glory:

For tough pups only. Hockey costumes are a great choice for dogs who are missing a few molars, incisors, or maybe a “canine” or two!

6. Paw to Paw Contact:

Does your pooch have the eye of the tiger? The heart of a lion? Then a boxing or karate themed costume is the best around. Just watch out for that right hook and that crane kick!

7. Need For Speed:

Do you have to wave the checkered flag to get your pooch to slow down? Dress him as a race car driver or a motocross pup!
