I dressed him up in a Halloween costume.

We tried it on last night to see how it would work. He’ll be mad that I showed these to you:  
[First](http://pages.sbcglobal.net/troub/tino/bikerpup1.jpg), [Second](http://pages.sbcglobal.net/troub/tino/bikerpup3.jpg), [Third](http://pages.sbcglobal.net/troub/tino/bikerpup2.jpg). And one that I [photoshopped.](http://pages.sbcglobal.net/troub/tino/outsider.jpg)

So, who else engages in this sad, sad practice? Have pictures to share?

My mom says my girlfriend and I need to (get married of course and) have a real kid.

The implications of the thread title almost scared me.  
What a cutie pooch.

I would never EVER do that to my dogs! :o But he looks really cute and gave me four good laughs. Thanks, Troub! 😃

The Outsiders? I was thinking more Happy Days. 😃

BTW – my cat would never permit such indignities.

I laughed I cried I snorted.

Best canine costume I’ve ever seen, well, I haven’t seen many. Too cool!

Funny that. A Korean chef said the exact same thing to me just the other day.

That was hilarious.  
I wouldn’t try that with my dog, cause he’d chew it off and into pieces in no time.

Normally I’d think putting clothes on a dog quite the abuse.

But it suits him, I couldn’t believe it!

He didn’t mind, I assume?

I LOVE it. Wal-Mart has princess costumes for dogs, and I’m getting one for my gay Shar-Pei. Pictures to follow, I promise.

I wanted to get one for Bobby Ranger, but somehow missed the boat. Those are really cute pictures even if the little hands are just a tad disturbing when you see them as the picture is loading.

He looks great. It’s kinda fun to embarass 'em once in a while, isn’t it?

We put scarves and kerchiefs on our Rott. She’s worn birthday & New Years Eve hats, and she has her own elf hat for Xmas. She loves the attention and gets all goofy. It’s hilarious.

Your guy’s a Weimaraner, is he? In the third shot, he reminds me a little of Vlad Putin. 🙂

Thanks guys 😃 Yeah, he’s a Weimaraner, and so far he looks like either Bob Uecker or Vladimir Putin. Hmmm.

No, he didn’t really mind. He _did_ want to play with the arms and the wallet chain, but other than that he was ok with it.

There is a little “leather” cap that goes with the outfit, too, but I decided I wouldn’t push my luck any further. I think it would make him look like one of the Village People anyway.

OK, confess. Who else, upon seeing the thread title, thought oldscratch had requested a name change and someone had bumped yet another old thread?
