Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Not any bed would do, I had to make my own. KG7Gw

I used a method like one would for a tie blanket and put a lot of stuffing inside of it. I had read a specific scenario a husky puppy could get into, finding some fizz protruding from a couch or something and curiously pulling it out. Pulling as much as possible out. To try to combat this I ran a stitch all the way around it up against where the knots are so he can't as easily access it. I am suspecting he will love to chew up the ties on the side which is a-okay with me. Dual purpose and an excuse to make another one for him. I really enjoyed making it, took about an hour to put together. It is roughly 2.5 feet long and 2 feet wide. The underside which is not pictured is solid dark gray. Originally I wanted both sides to be dark fabric to not get as easily gross looking but when I saw this dragon fabric on sale I knew it was necessary to go with the toy I had already got him.

It is very cute. Will it fit in your washer? Char peed on his bed several times before the potty training kicked in.

It should, I can fit a down queen sized comforter in there along with all the sheets for it. I don't think I should wash anything else with it though if it has been peed on.

Very cute.. I love the dragon fabric.

I made Blaze a bed he still uses when we first got him of course he wasn't a puppy ( 9 months old at the time) I used to 2 king size bed pillows for the stuffing and cover it in the heavy weigh fabric. He has never peed on it but he did try and chew it up when shortly after we got it.

Oh By the way Blaze had that dragon toy also he also has a green one. Blaze and Kerian have two bed each one in the living room and one in the bed room ( they sleep in the bed room at night.

Not any bed would do, I had to make my own. ZF6Rf

I thought I was done crafting for the night but I was wrong and I stitched up another leash to match the harness I ordered. I almost ordered the leash from the lady as well but I knew I could make it on my own and had all the supplies needed so I put off. Saved myself fifteen dollars which is always nice. It is short but I wanted it to be that way for now, I don't want him to be able to wander very far until he has all his shots. Once that happens I have the ability to make it even longer if necessary.

I like the idea of putting pillows inside of it as opposed to stuffing, it adds an extra layer of protection between puppy and puppy pulling out the stuffing. Next one I make I will have to try that.



Would anyone have any interest in maybe purchasing something like this, do these look like things you would consider purchasing for your pet? I've wanted to list the stuff I make on etsy for a while but up till now I had never made pet things, I had no reason to and honestly hadn't thought to.
