Stuff Your Pooch’s Stocking with This Homemade Dog Toy!

December 13, 2015 by OneMommy

 

The stockings are hung on the gate that surrounds our wood stove, just waiting to be filled.  There’s a Santa stocking for our son, and a cute snowman for our daughter.  This year there is a fuzzy red one as well, just waiting to be stuffed with goodies for the dog.  One of the presents she’ll be enjoying is a simple homemade dog toy made from an old t-shirt.

To make this DIY tug-of-war toy for your family pet, you just need an old t-shirt.  If you want to make it multi-colored you could use a couple different colored t-shirts.

Once you have the t-shirts you’re going to use, cut them into 1 inch thick strips.  Tie six strips together at one end.

Separate the strips into pairs and braid them.  Finish it by tying it off at the opposite end.

For a thicker tug-of-war toy try using nine strips of t-shirt instead.

 

Our family dog is going to be so excited when she pulls this homemade dog toy out of her little red stocking on Christmas morning.  I bet your dog will love it, too!
