I might be a little obsessed with my dogs, especially because my two children are grown! lol.. The pups don’t seem to mind my attention, as long as it doesn’t involve sweaters or costumes! Since I was a little girl, and got my first dog (Barney) , I have always had one or two dogs, and currently we have 3! I am definitely a dog person. So at Christmas or any other holiday, I have to include them just like anyone else in the family. They get presents, birthday bones, Halloween costumes (which they don’t love, but I do! ) and of course the most wonderful time of the year and my favorite holiday they are spoiled just like everyone else! We currently have two Australian Shepherds, Tessie (Blue Merle) and Levi (Red Merle) and a little mixed breed pup named Oliver, Tibetan spaniel, and not sure what else mix of lots of personality and love! A daddy’s boy! The twins, as I call them, my Aussie’s are my babies, When looking for the perfect stocking for my Tessie in 2020, I couldn’t find any that felt like it would fit her personality, I saw lots of Aussie stockings, but Aussie’s markings can vary a lot, from coloring, eye colors, and so on.. So everything I found to purchase just didn’t make me happy. So I had an idea, and I think it worked out pretty good. Below is step by step instructions on how to make a custom stocking for your pup and capture their personality and unique look. Merry Christmas, and please if you make one, I would love for you to share it with me!
