    The holiday season is a magical time full of lights, laughter, and family pictures! Since your pup is part of the family, they should be included in your next photoshoot, too.


    Whether Fido and Fifi are the main stars or background characters in your human pictures, they need to dress for the season. Sweaters, hats, antlers, boots, and more festive attire are the paw-fect way to give your pup the love and attention they deserve during the howl-idays.


    The dog Christmas outfits on this list are perfect for pictures with Santa, holiday parties, or just walking around town looking extra aww-dorable.

     

    Dog Christmas Outfit Trends 

    Antlers

    If you’ve ever seen a dog wearing antlers, you know it’s paws-itively precious, and you’ve decided you must have some for your pup this year. Antlers and matching bandanas are inexpensive and soft enough to gently tie behind your dog’s ears. 

    The “Ugly” Christmas Sweater

    It’s not possible for your dog to be ugly, but their sweater can be! Grab them a cozy layer in a goofy holiday print--the more outrageous, the better!

    Paw-fect Pajamas

    Ready to design the paw-fect family photo shoot? Dress everyone (including the dog) in matching Christmas pajamas! Or give your dog their very own pair of Indoor Dog Grippy Sock Leggings. They’re like the softest, stretchiest PJs (and they help your dog get a grip on slippery indoor surfaces!).

    Santa’s Helper

    Where would Santa be without his elves to help him get ready for Christmas every year? Dress Fido up in an adorable elf outfit to give Santa an extra helping “paw.” Complete with a hat and front-fitting costume, your pup will look like he’s heading to the North Pole every time he comes running your way!

    Boots With the Fur

    The holiday season calls for cooler weather, which can be dangerous for your dog’s sensitive paws. Fortunately, with Walkee Paws Dog Boot Leggings, your pup can be both protected and dressed for the occasion! Teeny tiny pups can grab a pair of our snowflake print leggings, and bigger dogs can sport the winter-ready plaid print.

    Oh Christmas Tree

    Here’s one tree your dog won’t want to mark as their territory. A Christmas tree outfit is a long, green sweater decorated with shiny ornaments and candy canes. We highly suggest you finish the look off with a matching flashing headpiece powered by LED lighting.

    Rudolph

    The all-time favorite Christmas character is arguably Rudulph, and your dog is just the right size to dress up like this jolly reindeer! With a walking reindeer costume and red nose, you have everything you need to turn your pup into Santa’s leading sleigh-puller. 

    Frosty the Snowman

    You’ll surely have a holly, jolly Christmas when you see Fido in their snowman outfit! This costume has it all, including a cozy sweater, a candy cane striped scarf, stick arms, and a top hat. 

    We recommend skipping the corn cob pipe, and using Walkee Paws dog boot legging if you’re taking your dog outside into the snow for your photoshoot. 

    Mini Santa

    Santa can’t fit down your chimney, but his adorable canine helper can! Complete with Santa’s hat, coat, and pants, Fido will be ready for a sleigh ride this Christmas.


    Conclusion

    From Frosty to Santa and everything in between, there’s something for every dog’s personality on this Christmas outfit list. Your pup is going to shine bright this holiday season when you dress them in one (or all) of these festive dog Christmas outfits!
