11 Tiny Yorkies Dressed as Hershey's Kisses Are Full of Pure Halloween Sweetness
The best thing about Halloween, even more than the seemingly endless supply of peanut butter chocolate, is seeing all the cuties in pet costumes. And there's a group of Yorkies who just might take home the win for best group get-up.
On October 26, 2024, the TikTok account for the Utah Yorkies (@theutahyorkies) shared a video of the crew of 11 tiny pups who won us over with their creative group costume idea. It's genius—take a look!
The Utah Yorkies are a group of 11 tiny Yorkshire Terriers who collectively decided what they would dress up as for Halloween this year. And they most certainly will win any group costume contest.

These Yorkies are all dressed up for the kissing booth, each donning a costume resembling a Hershey's Kiss. They've got the silvery paper triangle bottom that looks like the bulk of the chocolate, a cute aluminum party hat on their heads representing the point, and the iconic "Kisses" tag in blue from their hats.
When all 11 are together, they're like a perfect pack of the iconic chocolate Kisses. As the video's caption says, this pack contains 11 "smooches," and they're ready and "open for business."
Although each pup may be dressed in the same costume, their cute faces are all different, adding something extra to the overall look. You can see their personalities despite being dressed up as a piece of chocolate candy.
The comments on the video highlight how perfect this group costume idea is and how well these Yorkies pull it off. One person wrote, "Best group Halloween costume I’ve seen," while another shared, "They’re hired for the Christmas kisses commercial!!" Someone else admitted, "I love it when a video actually makes me laugh out loud."
Important Costume Safety Reminders for Dogs
Halloween is one of the best times of the year thanks to the costumes, which give us the space and the ability to be as fun and creative as our imagination allows. When we get the whole family dressed up, there are a few critical costume safety reminders for the dogs who will get in on the fun, which the Animal Humane Society outlines.
"For some animals, wearing a costume is downright miserable," they note. "Only dress up your pet if you’re sure they’re comfortable and not stressed while wearing their outfit. If your pet’s not having fun, you won’t either."
If your dog is willing to wear a costume, look for one that fits well and is comfortable. The costume should "never restrict movement," the society explains, and the pup should be able to "walk, bark, meow, see, and hear clearly."
Another important thing to ensure is that the costume is free from toxic materials and potential choking hazards.
The Animal Humane Society explains, "Avoid painting your pet's costume with paint or cosmetics that could be harmful if ingested. " Also, "Avoid small, dangling accessories, like sequins or beads, on the costume that can get chewed and swallowed."
Pet parents should always supervise their dogs when wearing the costume to monitor and "intervene quickly if they're feeling uncomfortable, stressed, or in pain."
