I was tinkering around today and thought I would get a little creative and pull apart an old blanket that was stating to fade. Han’s is obsessed with squeaky toys and so I set about inventing something that would keep him busy and that wouldn’t be destroyed in 2 minutes flat. I think the results were pretty impressive and Hans loves it!
For those of you who like to recycle as well… Here is what I did…
What you will need
Old blanket (see below)
Squeaker
Filling
Sewing Machine
Needle & thread
Crazy Dachshund
Old Blanket – I loved this one because it was a knit and Han’s teeth can penetrate it without ripping SUCCESS!!
Step 1: Cut out circle shape
Step 2: Sew both pieces together
Step 3: fill with stuffing
Step 4: Insert squeaker
Step 5: Hand stitch closed
Step 6: Give to your pooch and watch them try to destroy it.
Gorgeous little Hans ❤
I bet you my guys & gal would destroy it in seconds…which is a shame as my girl LOVES balls but they literally last under 2 mins 😦 Let me know how long this lasts bc i know what daxi’s are like with tearing things!
What a great idea! Where do you get the squeaker from?
Little Sausages any good craft store should supply them. Andie it lasted for a good week… If it wasn’t made out of wool I am sure it would still be in tact 🙂
