DIY Dog Man Costume
Toddler Train Conductor Costume | Train Conductor Hat |
Puppy Dog Ears |
You can make your own Dog Man costume from a blue train conductor costume, the matching conductor hat, and some puppy dog ears. In the books, Dog Man is a police officer, but the conductor costume looks closer to the illustration. We also carry plenty of makeup kits if you want to add more detail, but it's really not necessary.
