Han Solo and Chewbacca. Dorothy and the Cowardly Lion. Alice in Wonderland and the White Rabbit.

 

This Halloween, you can dress as any one of these famous duos by coordinating costumes with your favourite four-legged friend.

 

Halloween has become big business over the past two decades.

 

In 2001, the British public spent £12m a year on it; that annual figure has since ballooned to £330m.

For God's sake, why would someone want to dress up, with or without their dog, and celebrate a Pagan date. Made popular in the USA and then permeating throughout the World. Now Buddhists doing it. I can dress myself and my dog up anytime I want without the 'religion'.

Here is an idea:

Instead of "dressing up your dog", use that time to go to the gym and lose some weight.

It does make for some funny photos and no one is hurt.

It's not unknown for dogs to be dressed up in Thailand.  There are also some 4 legged ones also that have been dressed up ????
