home made dog chew toy:
stick attack
by maddie
(oregon)
I took a metal bar, planted it as far as i could in the ground, really deep, making sure my dog could not pull it out.
Then i tied a rope (not chain) to the metal bar, took a tennis ball with a hole through the middle of it, and put it on the rope.
Next i tied the rope in a triple dawg knot . . .
My dog LOVES it, plays on it for hours and hours a day, and i don't have to take him/her to an expensive daycare anymore ! ... now when i go away i know just to close and lock the gate to my outyard and my dog stays and plays with it.
Some dogs may try to pull the pole out of the ground - if that's the case, you must put something around the bar or it might hurt your dog's teeth, but besides that ... have fun with your new and easy, free dog toy ! ! !
