Howl-O-Ween {DIY Ghost Dog Toy}

October 15, 2012 By Irresistible Pets 10 Comments

DIY Ghost Dog Toy

Boo! Here’s a fun (possibly free) dog toy that you can make for Howl-O-Ween!

What You Need

  • One pair of mens white socks
  • Tennis Ball
  • String or piece of sock

What You Need - DIY Ghost Dog Toy

Time Required

  • 5  – 10 minutes

How Much Does it Cost?

This project cost me nothing to make! I used a pair of my husband’s old socks and one of Chuy’s old tennis balls.

Instructions

Step One

Place tennis ball inside of the sock.

Step Two

Twist the sock underneath of the ball. Using a piece of string or a piece of the other sock, tie off the ball (or head of the ghost).

Step Three

Cut strips from the other end of the sock.

Step Four

Tie knots on the strips you just cut. This gives your dog extra stuff to chew on!

That’s it! The finished product should look something like this:

Chuy really enjoyed this dog toy! That’s because he is THE sock monster!

    That is a really cute idea! I think it would work best for little dogs with little teeth. If you have a big dog chewing on that they would just rip the sock to shreds in minutes! haha!
