Easy Dog Necklace
Dog Sunglasses
may help a dog who has had eye surgery or has some other problem where light hurts their eyes. You may also feel that since you wear sunglasses regularly for your eye protection, your dog deserves the same kind of care.
Homemade Dog ID Tag
Are you worried about your dog getting lost or escaping, especially if your dog needs regular medication or has a personality that could be misunderstood? For peace of mind, make one of our Free Dog Tags, single- or double-sided.
Dog Bowls
Portable Dog Bowls are dog accessories that don't have to cost you anything extra because they can so easily be made from reusable materials.
The same goes for making
No Skid Dog Bowls
which prevent your pet's food bowl from sliding all over the place when he or she is trying to eat.
Comet used to end up with his in some corner halfway underneath a cupboard until we figured out how to solve this problem!
Socks & Booties
One Dog Sock or four
can be knitted or crocheted to keep a bandage in place or your dog's legs warm, or else match a sweater or coat.
Booties can be made to protect a dog's paws from rough terrain such as sharp rocks or things such as very hot sand and rocks or snow and ice. Like dog socks, they can also be more decorative than functional. For a pattern and further valuable information about booties, visit
