Grey and white hooded puppy jumpsuit with attached 3D ears and tail

This Kids Grey Puppy Dog Costume brings the warm-fuzzy energy of a favourite pet to Book Week or any animal-themed dress-up day. The one-piece hooded jumpsuit is plush velour—soft enough for all-day wear, warm enough for outdoor parades, and cute enough for those school photos everyone wants to take.

Grey body with white chest panel, floppy 3D ears on the hood, embroidered dog face (big eyes, black nose, pink tongue peeking out), and a fluffy tail with a white tip at the back. Elasticized cuffs at wrists and ankles keep the fit snug without restricting movement—handy when they're running around the playground or trick-or-treating door to door.

Perfect For

Book Week & Animal Story Days: A natural match for any book with a dog character—Hairy Maclary, Where the Wild Things Are (if your child's decided their Wild Thing is a pup), or nursery rhyme parades.

School Dress-Up Days: 100 days of school, kindy animal parades, or last-minute "come as your favourite pet" days—this one goes on in under a minute and needs zero accessories.

Birthday Parties & Play: Animal-themed birthday parties, Halloween trick-or-treating, or just casual dress-up at home when they want to be a puppy for the afternoon.

How to Wear It

Pair with comfortable sneakers or slip-on shoes (the jumpsuit covers most of the foot anyway). No makeup, no props—the embroidered face and floppy ears do all the character work. Hood stays on without fuss, making it easy for younger kids to manage themselves.

Parent FAQs

Q: What size should I order?

Check the size chart for chest and height measurements. The jumpsuit has a relaxed fit with elasticized cuffs, so if your child is between sizes we'd say go with the larger one—they'll get more wear out of it and the elastic keeps it snug at wrists and ankles.

Q: Can they wear this over regular clothes?

Yes, though the plush fabric is warm—we'd suggest a thin layer underneath if the classroom or party venue is heated. For outdoor October parades or cooler weather, it's cosy enough on its own with just a T-shirt and leggings underneath.

Q: How do I wash this? Is the fabric durable?

Gentle machine wash cold, air dry flat. The plush velour holds up well to washing—embroidered features are securely stitched, not glued on, so they won't peel off in the wash.

Q: Is this suitable for Book Week?

Absolutely. Animal costumes are always a Book Week favourite, and this puppy pairs with any dog-character book your school's reading. Teachers love it because it's one piece, covers the whole body (no lost accessories), and kids can wear it all day without overheating or discomfort.

Care: Machine wash cold, gentle cycle. Air dry flat to maintain fluffiness.
