According to The National Retail Federation, Americans shell out a staggering $700 million each year on Halloween costumes, specifically for their beloved pets. That's correct, nearly three-quarters of a billion dollars are dedicated to cat and dog costumes.
Among the most sought-after choices are costumes depicting pumpkins, hot dogs, bats, and bees. For those looking to dress up as their furry friends, experts offer some essential advice.
First and foremost, ensure your costumed pooch is not left unattended. Additionally, make certain that the costume doesn't pose any potential choking hazards or obstruct their movement, eyesight, or breathing in any manner.
