This pillow was featured in Rescue Dog Blog Hop hosted by Madame Stitch. This event featured designs you could make to help shelter dogs be adopted or bring them comfort while they wait for their “furever” home.

Thank you to those who supported this wonderful event. I devoted 20 years of my life working in the kennel of a no-kill animal shelter. I know firsthand how much these dogs appreciate having a soft blanket or toy to cuddle as they wait for that special someone to rescue them.
