Does Your Dog Hate <br />Wearing a Halloween Costume? As people prepare to dress up for<br />Halloween, some may even decide to<br />buy a costume for their furry companions. Although our pets usually comply,<br />professor Alexandra Horowitz<br />believes they might only be<br />doing so for our benefit.

It’s because of this that dogs may<br />be genetically disposed to believe a<br />costume is a form of being corrected.

If they’re unhappy with what they’re<br />wearing, try to ease their stress by<br />choosing a less constrictive costume.
