Our dog, Daisy, is a saint. She puts up with so much from Avery it’s incredible. From having hats put on her, to being dressed in princess dresses, to having random items piled on top of her… 
She doesn’t react, she doesn’t growl, she just sits there and lets it happen. She’s such a good girl.
All Daisy wants in life is a comfy place to sleep. The only problem is…she’s a blanket thief! 
Avery is NOT cool with this. When she catches Daisy with her blankets or pillows or stuffed animals, she loses her cool. So I had to do something to make both of them happy.
Since Daisy seems to love fleece blankets the most, I decided to make her her own fleece blanket dog bed! I used an old pillow for the cushion, and added snaps along one edge for easy removal for washing!
This Easy DIY Dog Bed took me about 1 hour to complete, and that included the time I spent learning how to attach snaps!
For your Easy DIY Dog Bed, you will need:
- 1-2 yards of Fleece
- This depends on how large your pillow is. I bought two yards of fleece (1 yard of each pattern) and used a standard pillow, and only ended up using half of the fleece.
- Fabric scissors
- pillow
- heavy duty snaps and a snap setter
Step 1. Lay out your fleece with the backs facing each other/inside. Lay your pillow on top to measure out how much fabric you’ll need, and make sure you have enough (I left about 4 1/2 inches on all sides) Make sure both pieces match up evenly, and trim any uneven sides.
Step 2. Cut out a square at each corner. Make these squares the same length you want your fringe to be. This will prevent the corners from getting bound up.
Step 3. Cut your fringe/strips along 3 sides (Leave one side for the snaps) 
Step 4. Once all your fringe is cut, you can begin making knots. Grab each section and tie with a simple knot. Continue around the blanket until complete.
Step 5. Now it’s gets extra fun! On the side where you’ll be adding the snaps (you could also use velcro or other closure) Fold the edge over so it forms a double layer, and a nice hem. Make sure both layers are nice and even.
Step 6. Measure and mark where you’ll place the snaps (top and bottom)
Step 7. Attach the snaps as per your snap setter’s instructions. 
Step 8. Stuff the pillow inside the case, and snap it up! It’s ready for your dog to use!
Look at that face!!! I think she likes it!
And because it’s easy to wash, I don’t mind letting her use it outside!
The only thing Daisy likes more than her snuggly new dog bed, is food.
She’s getting a bit older (she’s 8ish) and her vet recently put her on a diet (What I thought was a tumor, turned out to just be love handles! haha) and we’ve been trying to find a different food for her as she seems bored with her usual brand and flavor. I found Purina® Pro Plan® Savor Adult Shredded Blend Chicken & Rice and thought it would be perfect for her.
Since we are all so busy this summer, and I hate lugging giant bags of dog food out of the store, into my car, out of the car, into the house, etc. I decided to order it on Amazon! Ordering from Amazon gives us more time to play in the yard and cuddle, rather than leaving Daisy home alone, while we are out shopping!
It’s super easy to order using the amazon app! I just search for what I need, select the size and flavor, and add it to my cart!
And, if that isn’t easy enough, Amazon has a subscription option call Subscribe & Save where you can sign up for a subscription service for many of your favorite products! You won’t have to worry about running out!

We will begin to teach him things from the four months, but very little by little, without hurry, and always using positive reinforcement. Fundamentally, we do it this way so that the puppy learns well. A well-mannered dog is paramount to enjoy life with your pup.dog bed wholesale
