These novelty dog muzzles make furry friends look like the classic yellow cartoon smiley face, complete with a red, stuck-out tongue.
Dog costumes have been around for as long as the domestication of canines itself. Pet owners love to dress their furry friends up in tutus, fairy wings, cozy fall sweaters and ridiculous bows. Recently, dog attire has been getting even more creative, particularly in its inventive references to pop culture -- and these smiley face dog muzzles are a perfect example.
The smiley dog muzzles turn puppies into replicas of the big yellow smiley face most notable for its use by Wal-Mart and by DC comics as the symbol of its 1980s Watchmen series. The dog muzzles add a tongue sticking out of the side of the silly mask, making it look like a perfect cartoon image of a dog's nose.
