Suede Doggie Coat

Tools and Materials

1/3 yard of fabric (for a 20-pound dog)
Scissors
Erasable fabric marker
Four buttons
Needle and thread

I used some felt because it’s very affordable and you can choose from LOTS of colors! I just used two sheets of felt and sewed them together because Co is long!

After you sew the felt together it’s time to cut your strips that go around the neck and across the bottom!

This is what your strip should look like after you cut it. Drape over dog.  Mark where buttons will hold the straps, across the lower neck and behind the front legs.

I used some old vintage buttons that I had. Sew buttons onto main piece; cut slits in straps. (As dog grows, make longer straps.)

Ceaux Ceaux was so distracted. I wonder if dog’s can be ADD! This thing on her is SOO funny!

She was SO awkward and didn’t know how to move! She just stood there and moved her eyeballs!!! To think there were people out there that didn’t love this dog like she needed to be loved is unreal to me! She’s just amazing!

Seriously. How could you not love this face! I swear she did NOT move until I took it off! I hope this craft is fun and easy for you!

Cozy Travel Cushion for Pets

What’s upppp Jaderbugs! It’s such a pretty day outside! I could not wait to post this craft because I just knew everyone out there would be able to do it and it’s a perfect Christmas gift. Last week Martha’s dog’s tweeted me about this craft and I meant to post it earlier but due to a death in the family I kinda got sidetracked. {{so sorry Francesca and Sharkey}} Wanna meet them? OK!

Read more about Francesca HERE

They really are the cutest things ever! Plus, they are totally into computers like Ceaux Ceaux.. If you don’t know who Ceaux Ceaux is you can read her blog HERE… She is my dog and FABULOUS!
There are a few things you will need to do this craft. A towel, batting and embroidery thread. OH! Plus lots of doggie love. Let’s get started!

I bought 2 towels thinking I would use one color on each side. Ya know, dark blue so you don’t see if it get’s dirty and light blue {{for show}}. Smart huh! HOWEVER. I only used 1 towel. I didn’t realize how big they were and my Co isn’t that big. But I still plan on making the light one so she looks pretty on it! Co is spoiled. Seriously.

 Since I used 1 towel I just folded it in half and sewed the 2 sides together. Leave one side open so you can slide the batting inside. See how I did it? Super easy. I doubled up my batting so it was really comfy for her.

 I used an off white embroidery thread. Make sure you get the right needle (embroidery needle) for this because it needs to be tough to go through all of the layers. You will push the needle through to the bottom and after just pass it back through to the top. Tie a knot to secure the thread. Your doing this to the batting does not move around inside of the towel. VOILA!

 So, I put it down and CO just went right on it. It’s like she knew it was for her. She does this “stretching thing” and she was totally doing it here.

Then all of a sudden she started doing her yoga. Yes. She does yoga. Did you know dog’s can do that? Clickhere to read more!

Last was the look. I don’t know how she does it. Maybe it’s the mixture of the eyes, moles and hair coming out all over her face. What cha think? CUTE or WHAT! I hope you enjoyed this craft because I did!

I hope you get loads and loads of puppy dog eyes today, your JADERBOMB

The life of a dog....

my mom works alot. she blogs alot. when she is blogging i usually give her a signal that i would like to sit next to her. so she pulls one of my beds by her. and this is what i do.

yes. this was over a period of 5 hours. 

who? me? yes. i like to poke my nose out every once in a while to let my mom know i am breathing. 

where is co? my mom tucks me in every night but now i am so smart i know how to use my nose to cover myself. i think im a natural.
 

ok. bye y'all. 

leg's wide open.....

yeah. i was sleeping. you don't sleep with your legs open? hmmm

k. going back to sleep.

oh I forgot to tell you. my nanny bought us this little trampoline.. (i think it was for exercising) but i totally stole it. it is now my outdoor bed. when anyone tries to take it i just look at them with those eyes. you know. my puppy dog eyes. even thought I am a house dog. I still have to be comfy outside... bye.

i have to get ready for this sunday! they have bark in the park and they are pulling for next years court... keep your fingers crossed!!!!
