My version of Poochie Bells

Poochie Bells

   Went to the grand opening of Woof Gang Bakery in my area. Saw the most interesting thing "Poochie Bells," loved them!!!! What I did not like was the price point 20.00 each. Well I wondered do they work and if it would be worth buying. Well with the economy and my familly situation I decided it was not in my immediate budget.
So, being the persistent idvidual that I am and loving crafts. I decided I was going to make my own. and I did see them below. It was a really quick and easy fun project took less than 30 min and cost less than 10 and I can make 2 of them with what I bought. I hand sew the ribbon to hold the bells; poochie bells have the key ring through the bells. I just wanted to spend the least amount of money. Joann's is my favorite place so I found doggie ribbon in several widths and used that. The ribbon I chose was the most expensive part of the project. About 3 dollars for the thicker on and the thinner one was about 1.00 which is cool. The bells a little different from poochie bells I had three rows and only the bottom one is the larger bell. So, it is a little different  than the store bought poochie bells.
That aside what am I going to do with my poochie bells? Well the goal is to train my bassett Roxie to use these to go out. Now she is pretty good about this she usually barks. But as you may or may not know i have other dogs and then they start to bark. This is the idea to utilize the bells so that she does not have to bark and wake the kids or get the other dogs going.
Will keep everyone posted with our journey in training Roxie with the homemade version of poochie bells.
