    How sad. We had to take our beloved German shepherd for that shot a few years ago. While it was the right thing for him we are not over losing him.

    Welcome from Illinois. My puppy likes to share with me!!! When he's old enough to appreciate a quilt of his own, I'll make one for him!

    No She is still with me, she is the best dog I have ever had, I just don't know what I will do when she passes.The dog I burried with his quilt was a a very special akita named brut he was a great dog too but not a snuggler like the basset.

    Welcome from AZ! I currently don't have any furbabies, but I have made several quilts for friends and family's furbabies. Seems as tho the more the word gets out about them, the more requests I get! Furbabies know a good thing when they see it!

    My dog thinks the quilts on my bed are his, so I guess they are.

    My cats love my quilts so I guess I should make them some of their own. Sounds good to me.

    I have been wanting to make one for my cat but haven't gotten to it yet. For now, she lays on all my quilts.

    Many people have animals with quilts. My dog has one, which she has to move around before sleeping. I did have a tied flannel quilt, until my DH's parrot carefully untied every tie!! He liked to use the edge of the quilt to climb onto the bed, UNDER the quilt, sneak up on me, then go to sleep with his head just sticking out. Sorry no pix. My allergies got bad and the parrot went to another home.

    I have made ALLOT of quilts for dogs. When I had gotten my mid-arm machine I wanted to practice learning all the fancy stitches (I still do). I had read somewhere that you can make cage/dogs quilts. I have given allot to the kennel where we got our dog and also to the kennel where we board our dog when we go away. It is nice to walk in a see all these lonely dogs waiting to be rescued laying on a soft warm blanket. Some dogs get so attached that they get upset when the quilt is removed to be cleaned. Makes me feel good!!!!
