Are you ready for the cutest Halloween couples costume that you can do with your dog? It’s Dorothy and The Lion from the Wizard of Oz! I am in love with these costumes on me and Lucy! Although I don’t think she looks like much of a Cowardly Lion. She’s more like a super friendly Lion who would like another treat ASAP. Check it all out and let me know what you think!
Update: See the other 2 costume ideas Surfer Girl + Shark and Rabbit + Magician!
Halloween Couples Costume: Dorothy and The Lion
The Dorothy style dress, red shoes and basket were so fun to prance around in while we did a little impromptu trick or treating (AKA got strange looks from everyone getting home from work!). And Lucy put up with the lion’s mane like a total professional. Once she got used to it, it was very easy to walk around in.
I love this costume because you can walk around to trick or treat or attend a doggy costume parade. Lucy was able to move around really well, and I could use my basket to keep treats, water and any other essentials if I needed to.

Halloween Costume Ideas For You + Your Dog
We’re having so much fun with Halloween this year (and it’s not even October yet!). This is the second stylish dog mom couple’s costume I have posted… did you see the Surfer Girl and Shark from last week? I’d love to hear about your Halloween plans with your dog. Scroll down and leave a comment about your cute costume ideas.
Update: Since originally posting this costume in 2017 I’ve had so many fans and followers send me photos of their recreations of this Dorothy and the Lion costume! I love seeing how you put your own spin on it! One of our favorite chocolate labs, @chocfullofposie on IG, and her mom wore this to an office Halloween party and they won best costume!
Thank you to Anna from Hello Gorgeous for letting me borrow the Dorothy style dress! And a big thanks to Chewy.com for sending us this lion’s mane costume for Lucy! It’s purrrrfect for us, especially when captured by the talented Sarah Collins of Rose Colored Creative.
