It's entirely possible that I alone am the only one to see how awesome these costumes are, but I really doubt it. I don't admit it much, but I find dogs dressed in non-floofy, somewhat ironic costumes to be kind of adorable, okay? And if my dog didn't hate it, and if I wasn't so busy, I could see totally getting caught up in it, because dogs in silly costumes are kind of effing HYSTERICAL.
So please, if you will, imagine the joy I felt when I spied Young Urban Puppy on Etsy, because, COME ON. SUPER MARIO BROTHER THEMED DOG OUTFITS. COME ON.
Behold, and envision Sunny the Pug in this little number:
Luigi! Luigi! And you thought Mario got all the attention ... oh, wait!
The only problem? Sunny's a girl. How on earth will we ever properly Nintendify her? OH LOOK, PRINCESS PEACH.
And at less than $17 a pop, these hand-crafted beauties are significantly less than most store-bought costumes, plus they're custom-made for your pooch's breed. I'm betting the quality beats the pants off of the Petco ones, too.
Stock up now for Halloween! Or just, you know, a little fun in the sun. What?
These are fantastic! I think my little Delilah might need a princess peach costume.. haha. She's a basset hound so I often have trouble finding stuff that fits her odd shape.

I forgot to specify (do I need to?) that it would be for Halloween of course. haha. Delilah doesn't wear costumes any other time of the year.. unless you count when I take her out on the boat and I make her wear her life jacket.

Dressing Iggy in costumes he loves to hate is pretty much the best thing ever. And thanks to you he can now look forward to being Luiggy (Ha!) for Halloween.
