The Hot Dog Dog Costume: A "Hot" Costume Idea!

Dachshund costumes have to be one of the most straight forward costume decisions ever if you are going to ask your dog to wear a costume this year. Hands down the vote is for the hot dog dog costume.

The wiener in a bun is one of the cutest costume concepts for dogs that has ever been created.  Dachshunds are mostly sweet dogs who with the right owner will agree to most any form of play imaginable -- even wearing a hot dog dog costume. Really, what other choice is there?

Well, if the obvious costume isn't for you, there are plenty of other choices. If you would like to be unique in what you dress your hot dog dog up as, here are some fun suggestions. A dachshund in a hamburger costume would be a good display or sarcasm. A dachshund dressed as a St. Bernard with the barrel around the neck would be very cute if you wanted to think extreme, since their poor little legs could not make it up a snowy mountain. This type of costume would be sure to bring lots of laughs and attention. If you are a seamstress and can make your own costume, a hot dog on a stick costume or reference to the wiener mobile could always be used. You would be certain to be admired for your creativity and sense of humor.

One important caution: be careful with any dog when dressing him or her in a costume, and be especially sensitive of the dachshund's back. Do not allow them to get out of control in their hot dog dog costume and risk hurting their backs or spines.
