One variation of the costume is found at That Pet Place and includes a pirate hat and a black pirate's shirt with a red scarf: http://www.thatpetplace.com/pet/group/7777/product.web

The Pirate King Dog Costume is also available at Costume Craze. This variation is a stuffed body front (including a soft hooked hand) which attaches to your pup around his neck and at his front paws and is Buccaneer-like in a brown bandana: http://www.costumecraze.com/DOG53.html.
