While human parents would think about occupations their children should grow up to have, we, as dog parents, brainstorm about what to dress up our pooches as for special occasions, such as Halloween, birthdays and other fun-filled social parties. Here we are sharing a few looks for your pooches to stand out in a crowd.

1. Intellect If you consider yourself an intellect and wish your furry child to live up to “like parent, like child” expectation, be a hairy Steve Jobs.

2. Ballerina Who says a ballerina must be thin like a paper? Dogs of any shapes and sizes can pull off this look with a tutu.

3. Photographer It’s about showing an artistic side of your furry child to the world with pride. Let your dog behind the camera for a change.

4. Superhero When your pooch is more like an energetic action type, putting on a superhero mask and a matching cape helps him identify himself positively, instead of a destructive force.

5. Princess If your babe is as elegant and superior as a royalty, why not crown her with beautiful jewellery to recognise her royal status?

6. Disguised animal If you are creative about turning your pooch into another type of animal, this is one of the successful examples.

7. Pope If you feel all of the above is still too ordinary, how about acting as a pope to let others bow and worship?

8. Ghost But when you are already too late and want only a last-minute look just so you can get into a dress-up party, make use of a cloth at home!

Warm reminder: If the weather is hot, please avoid putting layers on your lovely pooch to minimise the chance of getting a heatstroke.
