Dressing chihuahuas in cute costumes and clothing is always fun, but Halloween is extra special because you can really go all out in choosing a costume for your little dog. With a bit of imagination, your little dog can undergo a complete makeover and become Frankenpooch for October 31st! Imagine your little chihuahua greeting the trick-or-treaters at the door dressed up like a pirate or a cute little tank! The possibilities are endless.

Common chihuahua outfits for Halloween are the classic hot dog costumes, with the bun and the strip of ketchup and mustard. Those were big years ago. Lately, the witch and the devil have been popular costume choices for the chihuahua crowd. When your precious little dog shows up at the door dressed as a little minion or a devil, people just melt. Chihuahuas in Halloween costumes are difficult to ignore!

As I said, I think the best costumes are hand-made, but sometimes you need a starting point. Our own store has a line of Halloween shirts and costumes for chihuahuas:

The Halloween chihuahua shirts and hoodies you’ll find there can be a good starting point, but again, if you want to dress up your little dog in something special that sets her apart from all the other little dogs out there, you’re going to have to invest a bit more energy and start getting creative with your little chi’s costume. It’s the same as it is with human Halloween costumes: buying something pre-made will get you to a certain point, but if you really want to wow your friends and create an impression with the costume your chihuahua wears at that Halloween part you’re at, you’ll probably have to think about your little dog’s personality and figure out a way of externalizing that into a costume.

All of the major chihuahua clothes retailers online are selling Halloween costumes for little dogs right now, so it’s not that hard to find a starting point for your chihuahua costumes for October 31st. You’ll even find some decent Halloween costumes for chihuahuas at your local pet stores. You might have to look through a few different stores, but you will find them. Some chihuahua owners tell me the costumes sold in the traditional stores are more expensive, but I don’t always find that to be the case. So check it out and see for yourself. I will say that you definitely have more selection when you shop online and you’re picking out your chihuahua’s costume from the comfort of your home, however!

However you arrive at your chihuahua costume for Halloween this year, I wish you good luck and happy hunting! There are a lot of options for these Halloween outfits out there right now and there’s still time to find that perfect one that fits your chihuahua’s unique personality and that will make you smile and want to take dozens of pictures… again and again!

Be sure to check out the major chihuahua clothes shops online, take a look through your local pet stores in the costume area, and think about what you could do to customize a costume for your chihuahua that will make this Halloween a special one for your and your little doggie! Happy Halloween everyone!

It’s almost that time of year again when the whole world–well, the fun side of the world–dresses up in Halloween costumes and has a heap of fun on October 31st. Along with the people in costumes, a LOT of people including yours truly love to dress their chihuahuas up in cute Halloween chihuahua costumes for the special, spooky day of trick or treat! And to celebrate this year, the Chihuahua Shop has just released a Halloween line of chihuahua clothing for the little dogs out there! Check them out, below!

Your small dog can come with you to your Halloween party or help you out in treating the little kids who come by and pay your house a visit for some candy this Halloween. And when doing so, she’ll be looking the part with one of these Halloween dog T-shirts on her back! Just make sure that if you and your chihuahua decide to “trick”, there’s no biting involved, please!

These shirts actually come in sizes for all dogs, from XXS all the way up to XL for the bigger breeds, but chihuahuas BY FAR look the cutest in them, I have to say!

And each of these Halloween chihuahua shirt designs comes in either a T-shirt, a harness-lined T-shirt, a fleece-lined sweatshirt, or a chihuahua hoodie design, so you can choose whatever kind of chihuahua clothing that works best for your and your dog and where you live. I’m noticing that the majority of the Halloween chihuahua outfits we’re shipping up to colder countries right now like Canada and the UK are the Halloween hoodies and sweatshirts, whereas the ones that are headed for warmer places like Mexico and Africa are still mostly the Halloween T-shirts, for people and their small dogs lucky enough to be living in a warm part of the planet right now! (I’m jealous of you, as of typing this )

Anyway, you can find these adorable chihuahua clothes for Halloween at the Chihuahua Shop, so head over there, check them out, and have fun with them this 2011 Halloween! Speak soon, chihuahua fashion lovers! -Mikey Davis
