For Juma

Juma is my heart dog and I started making these toys for her and her brother Tyson. Previously they had rope toys and when they played with them little strings went everywhere. I was always afraid for the dogs safety. Our dogs love playing tug of war with each other, and catch and fetch with us using these braided toys. Juma has always loved to do puzzles. When I started making the lanyard toys she decided to take them apart not by chewing them, but by taking out each individual knot. This was not my intent for the toy and not how the other dogs use them, but it works for her. We shared our toys with other dog friends who enjoyed them and then decided to share them further. I also hand knit wool mice toys filled with organic catnip for our cats. I haven’t met a cat that didn’t go wild over them.

I have always been really conscious of the environment in my personal life, and now I’m trying to do the same in my business life. This past year I introduced up-cycled lines of dog and cat toys. The cat toys are made from up-cycled wool sweaters washed in hot water and the dog toys from the same as well as up-cycled wool blankets . I have an Australian Shepard that absolutely loves the wool. She plays with those toys until they are no longer braids but single small pieces of fabric. There is something about wool that both cats and dogs love...
