The opportunity to be wacky and crazy is simply irresistible for many people come Halloween night. And for this year they can exactly do that by becoming one of the craziest character on TV these days—Wilfred the dog. Based on the popular FX TV series entitled Wilfred, it tells of the story of a suicidal young man named Ryan, played by Elijah Wood and his neighbor’s dog, Wilfred played by Jason Gann. The two came together when a neighbor, Jenna, asks Ryan to look after Wilfred for the day. Ryan is taken aback as he sees Wilfred as an Australian man in a dog suit, while everyone else sees Wilfred as just a dog. Wilfred is protective of his owner and manipulative toward Ryan, to whom he becomes a mentor. He smokes cigarettes and marijuana, drinks beer, eats junk food, and is prone to various vices.

Wilfred dog costumes for Halloween are now available on the net if you want to get one. It’s basically a one piece outfit that is made out of a shaggy type of cloth. This costume is loosely fitting and has a hood with an open face. Attached to the hood are floppy ears hanging on each side. The bare face is that of a man with a painted black nose. There is really nothing remarkable about the outfit if you look at it but the popularity it is raking in nowadays will surely make this costume a hit this Halloween.

However if you really want to turn up the wackiness of this Wilfred dog costume and have more fun on Halloween night, you can do that by not only wearing the costume but also getting the accessories that complete the outlandish image this character projects. Aside from the attire itself, these accessories that define Wilfred the dog are available everywhere on the web. This includes items that show Wilfred’s passion for smoking cigarettes and pot, beer drinking, and junk foods items just to name some of his vices. You can actually let your creative juices run to come up with fun and original ideas in making this costume more outrageous.

Here are several suggestions for accessories which will surely take your Wilfred dog costume to the next level.

The Giant Bear
One of the familiar features of the show is the large, battered and abused bear that is carried by Wilfred. Having this item to carry around will certainly make your costume more authentic and fun. You can make it appear as if it is worn out to make it appear close to what we see on the show. Try considering this one from Amazon:

• Jumbo Stuffed Teddy Bear – This large stuffed and cuddly teddy bear will be perfect to complete the costume. This huggable teddy bear measures 46″ and features imported polyester fibers. Certainly you can find creative ways in making this teddy bear look like it has been violated continuously by a horny dog.

Jumbo Fake Marijuana Joint
Of course you do not want to be seen in public carrying a real marijuana joint on Halloween night. But you can always have the fake ones and this oversized doobie or fake marijuana joint is just the perfect prop to further raise the level of eccentricity of your Wilfred costume. This fake and oversized doobie measures 14 inches in length. Such an accessory would certainly get attention while you are making your rounds during the party.

Make Your Own Fake Bong
Another very familiar item that could be seen with Wilfred on the show is the bong and this could be another amusing and fun accessory to add and enhance your costume. If you are not inclined to actually purchase one from the net since it would be rather impractical then make it yourself. Here is an easy procedure to guide you:

• Find a two liter or 16 oz bottle or a can. At about 5 cm from the bottom of the bottle or the can, punch a hole measuring 1/8 inch (3mm) to 1/4 inch (6mm) in diameter which will serve as the entrance for the smoke. Find a tube, either metal pipe or a hallowed pen with the appropriate size and insert it in the hole at the bottom. Now you have your (reak) fake bong. For further realistic effect use dry ice to make it appear that you are actually smoking something.
