You've already got your family Halloween costume all figured out, but could there be someone you're forgetting? It's probably your pet! This year, consider breaking out a funny costume for your dog. The Pioneer Woman herself has been known to get the Drummond pups in on the fun of adorably silly outfits. Just look at Rusty dressed as a Bull Rider or Fred dressed as a hot dog—oh, the irony! "It's been four years Rusty and Fred wore these," Ree says, "and I think they're just starting to forgive me."
There are options here for small dog breeds and large dog breeds, so there's no limit to your creativity. When deciding on a costume, it might help if you pick one that reflects your pup's personality. A cupcake, for example, is perfect for your sweet companion, while more adventurous pups might like pretending to be a race car or a bull rider. Once you find the perfect costume for your dog, just be sure to do a safety check before purchasing it. There are slip-on options for pooches who like to squirm and more complicated ideas for the companion who is more willing to go along with your shenanigans.
You can get in on the fun, too! There are easy dog and owner costumes you can wear to match with your dog. If you're planning on tagging along with a crew, then you might want to consider any of these group Halloween costumes. After all, your dog would happily keep celebrations to a walk around the neighborhood.
Keep 'em howling with laughter this Halloween:
Is there anything better than a dog as a hot dog? It never gets old, especially if you've got a small breed like a Dachshund. Fred the basset hound makes a good contender, too!
Yee-haw! Look: It's Bull Rider Rusty struttin' his stuff on Drummond Ranch in this hilarious getup. Even if you don't live in the countryside, this is one knee-slapper of a costume idea.
This option is udder-ly cute, isn't it? Trick-or-treaters will shriek in delight when they see your dog dressed like a cow.
Dress up as America's country sweetheart: Dolly Parton! This set from her costume line includes a pink sequined dress, mini guitar, and curly blonde wig.
Otherwise, dress up your pup as another country icon: Willie Nelson! This costume set includes one wearable jumpsuit piece with an attached guitar and a braided wig.
If you own a Shih-Tzu or similar small breed, this costume is made for you! After all, some dogs look just like an Ewok. Dress the whole family up as Jedi, Chewbacca, or R2-D2 and you'll be off to a galaxy far, far away.
Beetlejuice fans, this is your year! Dress your pup a the ghost with the most to be the most on-trend idea for 2024. It's showtime!
"Puppy Shark doo doo doo doo doo doo..." okay, now that the song is stuck in your head: Go buy this adorable costume in your pup's size!
We're not lion, this costume is such a funny and easy idea for large breeds. Tan dogs, especially, will look hilariously realistic with this easy slip on.
This soft teddy bear will look so funny when your dog walks around the neighborhood on Halloween night. It'll fit dogs of all sizes, but is recommended for pets with short to medium legs.
Simple, funny, and cute. Those who have more than one dog at home can turn them into the dynamic duo with this matching set!
Amp up the joy factor a new package gives you by having your pup be the one to drop it off! 😂

Yours is the cutest pup of the patch—and this is the outfit to prove it! This plush jack-o’-lantern costume features a soft quilted jacket and an adjustable matching cap.
Calling all Top Gun fans! Your own top dog will want to take the highway to danger zone (or maybe just the dog park) in this fighter pilot getup. And yes, you can order the aviator sunglasses with the set.
Your pup may not be able to enjoy all the sweets and treats on Halloween (no chocolate alloweed!), but he sure can embody Sesame Street's iconic Cookie Monster character! Spot the little cookie between his paws.
Willy nilly silly old bear!
Ree herself might not like bananas, but we think your dog will. The easy straps make it a cinch to put on.
The best part about this dino costume is that it's made of fleece. Your pooch will look the part and still be cozy on Halloween night. (Do they make these for humans or...?)
Fido ain't afraid of no ghosts! This is an extra cute idea if your whole family is going as the ghost-busting squad in uniforms.
