This helps the toy withstand vigorous play. Safe Stuffing: If your dog likes to chew open toys, consider stuffing them with fleece strips instead of traditional stuffing. It\u2019s safer for them to chew on and easier to clean up if they manage to pull it out. No Loose Parts: Avoid adding buttons, beads, or other small parts that can be easily swallowed. Firmly stitch on any appliques for sturdy reinforcement. As with any dog toy, discard or repair any toy if chewed into bits and pieces!<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.26.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.26.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.26.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Personal Touches<\/h3>\n<p>One of the best things about making your own dog toys is that you make and create what you know your dog likes best. Use fabrics that match your home decor or that are colors and patterns you love. Check out <b>Spoonflower<\/b> for wonderful print on demand fabrics by Indie designers. You can even add a noisemaker inside if your pup prefers a toy that rattles, squeeks, or has a chime. Check out <b>Etsy<\/b> for a multitude of choices.<\/p>\n<p>For crackle noises pups love, insert an emply plastic water bottle inside your toy. Be sure to remove the cap and small ring at the opening of the bottle.<\/p>\n<p>For some extra play value, tightly tie a 12&#8243; long fleece strip around your toy&#8217;s neck. My pup loves this! She loves using these ties to shake and flop her toys around crazily!<\/p>\n<h3>Why DIY?<\/h3>\n<p>Making your own dog toys is not only fun but also cost-effective. Plus, it\u2019s a great way to recycle old clothes or fabric scraps. Your pup will appreciate the effort and love you put into making their new favorite toy.<\/p>\n<p>So, gather your materials and get sewing! Your pup is sure to love their new handmade toys, and you\u2019ll enjoy the satisfaction of creating something special just for them.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.26.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.26.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/elaineheigldesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1815.jpeg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;IMG_1815&#8243; url=&#8221;https:\/\/simplicity.com\/simplicity\/s9910&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.26.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.26.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>The cute critters in this pack have been wonderful for my mini 12lb schnauzer.
