With only a few weeks left until Halloween, you are likely wracking your brain on what to be this year. If you need a little inspiration, maybe you should let your pet be your muse.

Does your pooch look a little bit like a celebrity? Does he love any extra attention? To add a unique twist to Halloween, consider dressing as a pair with your pet, or just getting some laughs by putting him in costume. While people spend hours trying to think of the trendiest pop culture-inspired costumes (think of how many Sarah Palin look-a-likes you saw last year) it's actually classic costume ideas that tend to be most popular for pets.

After choosing the best costume for your pet, why not enter an actual contest! Petfinder.com is offering a Howl-O-Ween Photo Contest for the best pet costumes in three categories: Do-it-Yourself, Celebrity Look-a-Like and People & Pets. You can enter until October 31^st, on petfinder.com.
