 Well, that is all for now but I have a lot more ideas in mind!

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"!
