Yummy! LOL
And I am well prepared for the fact that Slade may eat his too. Guess I'll have to wait and see. |

I found them at a private store-in-a-barn (literally) we have here. Good 'ole hillbilly living. LOL
Wal-Mart has a fabric section though, so it might be worth checking. |

If I'm half as good a Mom as he will be cute, he'll be set! LOL
I actually just started talking to the owner of his half-sister (from last year's litter) and I just can't get over how pretty she is!

Oh my, she is gorgeous.
And the blankets are adorable. |

I have made several of those tie blankets for the dogs, they also work wonderful for in the car too! Not only that but you can make them and insert stuffing for a quick cheap dog bed. When Wyatt came home we made a little bed for him right at first by taking a regular bed pillow that we sleep with and fitting it to fleece, and doing the tie effect around the edges. The blankets wash up really nice too. We have found a bunch of hunting fleece here in NE, our favorite has been the hunters orange and then adding camo fleece to the back of it.
Noticed at Petsmart and Petco they are starting to carry a line of fleece toys for the dogs. They have braided pulls and giant fleece poof balls.

We've made those and given them to the shelter. They use them for the animals there or sell them at fundraisers.
They make nice baby blankets, too. And once when I was looking at fleece to buy, someone told me about the ones she would make for herself, but relatives kept taking them because the blankets were so comfy and warm. |

WOW! I'm jealous--that's great! My neglected doggies have to have plain old fleece from the fabric store--unaltered, unfinished, unsewn--to lay on. I wish I had a talent...
