Instagram

A new dog is in town to chase bad guys and get belly rubs.

An adorable pug on Instagram, known as Ninja Nate The Pug, showed off his Halloween costume as Dog the Bounty Hunter.

Sporting a blonde mullet, sunglasses and even a fugitive recovery agent badge, Ninja was the spitting image of Dog.

Nate was also equipped with a special doggy tactical vest featuring a Dog the Bounty Hunter patch and a pair of angel wings in honor of the late Beth Chapman.

"We tried our best to do our best Duane Chapman Halloween Costume? Hopefully he loves my costume and tribute to his wife with special angel wings," a message from Nate's humans read on Instagram.

Even though Nate only has 4,000 followers, word got back to the real Dog, who showed his appreciation for the costume by reposting it on his IG page.

Dog and Beth has been a popular Halloween costume for years, and will no doubt be popular this year as many will be honoring Beth after losing her battle with cancer.

Other honorable mentions so far for pet costumes are this good boy dressed as a werewolf.

And this little Joker.
