    I made a bunch of blankets that were flannel on one side and fleece on the other and took them to a show. I only sold one at the show, the fleece side was red with black paw prints on it, the lady was thrilled when she saw it because she needed a blanket for her dog! I probably could have sold out if all the blankets had been dog or cat themed! (I did sell all but 2 of the blankets at other shows).

Every a.m. she spreads the quilt out over the dog's bed and every night the dog remakes the bed. She digs the quilt up into a pile and when the pile is to her liking she lies down with her head on the pile of quilt. Now if THAT isn't appreciation, I don't know what is! LOL
    P.S My dogs don't have quilts. They use mine which is on my bed!
    I made a quilt for my cat many years ago and people thought I was mad. Gee, she was family too.

    And why not? I made one for a friend's large easy chair in the kitchen for the dogs to lay on ,she was reluctant to use but did and the dogs love it.

    I have made a lot of quilts for dogs, some with matching beds.
    Just a few of the ones I have made.
