Dog toys are one of those things that you purchase expecting that they will eventually be destroyed. Even if you spend money on supposedly indestructible toys for your pooch, it’s only a matter of time before they are reduced to a slobbery, shredded mess. (My neighbor’s dog, nicknamed “The Toy Destroyer,” can disassemble any dog toy, no matter how durable, in a few good days of play.) Sounds familiar? Instead of dropping money on a new toy, why not try making one out of scraps that you already have laying around? Ilse from Sew It Love It used scrap fabric to both create and stuff this tug-of-war style dog toy, and all it cost was a few minutes of her time! [how to make a dog toy from fabric scraps]
