I thought, with the nice Spring Weather and everyone headed to the Dog parks,
 That a water bottle Cozy was needed..

And what better Character to use then
the "Sock Monkey"!

I  designed this pattern for a Sock Monkey cozy and
 I think it's really easy to make and really cute and so 
much fun to carry!
Fits a 20 oz. soda just fine as well.

Dog Woobie Crochet Pattern

Woobie Dog Toy Crochet Pattern
Kids like them, too!
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs 


First of all: What is a Dog Woobie?

A Dog Woobie is a long, about 12 inches or longer, 
Stuffed Dog toy, usually shaped like a dog. 
Some of them have squeakers, some do not. 
It is totally up to you if you want to put a squeaker in 
it or not. My Rosie Bell, aka Chihuahua model # 2,
 is terrified of the Squeaking sound and runs away
 from them. Maximo, aka Chihuahua model #1, 
on the other hand, loves the Squeaker and loves to 
make it squeak, but probably just to annoy Rosie.




Note about Squeakers and dogs: 
My friend has a Doxie who loves to eat toys with squeakers in them. She had to take him to the vet for emergency surgery because he had swallowed the squeaker out of his woobie, 
not one of mine, and it had lodged in his intestine. 
He almost died. So All My Woobies will not  have the 
Squeakers in them.
Maximo says, "Don't touch my Woobie"!
