Hi guys!
I just wanted to share something with all you peeps who share your house with pups.
As you know from reading my blog, I am a thrifty chickadee. I like my money to stretch and I if I can I will make something, rather than buying it.
SO, my woofs really needed some new chew toys but we are saving as much moola we can for moving so buying them was out of the question.
I remembered I had some fleece in my fabric drawers, so I dug it out and wondered what to make.
My dogs will destroy anything in 10 mins flat, so I didn't want to spend hours making stuff, so I just cut strips of fleece and plaited it!!
It is perfect! The woofs LOVE these toys and keeps them quite for ages.
They sit there chewing them, playing tug of war with me and eachother and roll all over the place with them, haha!
To make, simply cut three strips of fleece, knot one end, plait as you would plait hair, then knot the other end, done!! Cheap and cheerful dog toy that they love!!
If you have a big dog, maybe you could try 6 strands of fleece, but for small to medium three is plenty :)
Just wanted to share xoxo
Please lemme know if you know of any thrifty doggy or kitty toy makes too!!
Don't you just LOVE being thrifty!!
What is your best thrifty tip to share??

Awww what sweeties they are, such a quick and easy idea to! My dog loves playing with old towels and ripping them appart, I very rarely buy him toys as he destroys them (also he hates the ones that squeak) but he seems happy enough playing with my old towels XD
aww thats such a great idea and they look like they are having fun. I made lots of pom pom's for out cat when she was a lil kitten and she still plays with them now :-)
Cate, aww, thank you!!! They are such cuties, they kill me but a real bundle of energy!
Old towels, gee, that is a fab idea and cheap too, thanks :)
We buy our dogs cheap socks and give them those too, for cheap toys that they adore :)

Anything small and light they can bat the hell outta, hehe!
