DIY: Mother’s Day Dog Mom Gift

Mother’s Day is on Sunday!

I was inspired by a post I saw on Pinterest a while back, and came up with a way to make it dog-friendly. I also thought it would be a cute little project to do with my regular doggie daycare clients to do for their moms, who do such a wonderful job taking care of them.

Most importantly, mom’s come in all types; whether you’re a human mom or a doggie mom, you’re loved and appreciated all the same.

Happy Mother’s Day, to all of those doggie moms out there.

Paw Print DIY

ITEMS NEEDED:

• Canvas, or anything else you’d like to do your paw print on. Something as simple as a piece of paper would even work

• Non-toxic paint

• Creativity! For added flair, do your paw prints in more than one color!

• Rag/Towel

• Bowl of water

• Cooperative dog.

Keep in mind, this isn’t supposed to be a traumatic experience for your dog. Don’t force your dog, if they’re not comfortable with it.

I found all of my supplies at the dollar store. I went with purple, as it’s one of my favorite colors.

I set everything up on the floor, so the dogs could check it out … sniff sniff sniff!

Lady even made sure the paint was non-toxic (she didn’t actually eat it, don’t worry!)

Theo was wondering about his canvas. I had to explain to him that Father’s Day is in a month from now!

Lady was ready to go! Stamping was easy with her, because she’s very relaxed with being handled. She enjoyed the extra attention 

Checking out her beautiful art work ….

I think her mom is going to LOVE it!

And here are the completed pieces! Declan, Ducati and Lady had a fun afternoon at doggie daycare, and I hope the moms’ loved there special hand made gift.
