I made the doll farmhouse bed and altered it into a dog bed. First one done for my German Shepherd. The second, finished one was for a friend's smaller dog.
Greetings!
As a guy, I tend to overlook the child stuff on this otherwise great site! But the idea to turn the child stuff for a pet is just great and a fine example of outside the box thinking. I am a dog trainer and think this is awsome! It's also a way to get a useful product out of a test run before you go full size! Again, superb!
Thanks JB! I wanted something more stylish than your typical fabric covered mattress pad (which is what I threw in there until I get motivated to sew one that fits). He loves it so I think I'm going to do another one for the bedroom because 125# is a lot of dog to share a bed with! :)
Really wonderful dog bed!! I like the image as well and planning to create same for my dog as well. Thanks mate for sharing this project. http://www.mycozycanine.com/
I was looking at dog beds and they can get pricey fast. For a little more money I can make her something that is more durable and stylish. I figure if it fits your dog, mine should be perfectly fine. Love the way it turned out :)
