There's no reason why your animal should miss out on all the Halloween fun, so why not letting them join in by outfitting them in a Headless Horseman Costume? This fun [Halloween pet costume](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloweenthemed-cat-treats) comes from Paper Magic and is available through [Amazon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/international-delight-2). Everyone is sure to appreciate your pet's festive spirit if you dress them up in this ensemble.

This spooky pet costume lets the legendary Headless Horseman ride around on your dogs back. The costume is of a Headless Horseman with his [pumpkin head](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pumpkin-spice-treat) in hand. It's an adjustable harness that comfortably straps to your dog's back.
