The Lauer Pugs
Pet costumes should not constrict an animal’s movement or ability to see, hear and breathe. Costumes should be flame retardant and non-toxic, and any small or dangling accessories that can be chewed and swallowed should be removed. Costumed pets should never be left unattended. And if they hate it – take it off!
