DIY No Sew Dog Treat Pouch | Blue Buffalo Santa Snacks #BlueHolidaysAtWalmart


Two of our favorite holiday traditions are seeing Santa and visiting different Christmas decors. This year is a bit different. Many places have minimal holiday decor and not offering Santa photos. These changes do not mean we can not celebrate the season with lots of smiles, love, and togetherness.

Since 2015, BLUE™️ Santa Snacks®️ is our favorite holiday dog treats. SUGAR loved this crunchy oatmeal and cinnamon dog biscuits. Now, KORU BEAR is loving these Santa Snacks in fun different holiday shapes like stars, gingerbread men, and Christmas tree. Your dog will also love BLUE™️ Santa Snacks wholesome ingredients, crunchiness, and delicious taste!

This is KORU BEAR 3rd Christmas. His first year celebrating Christmas 2017, he met seven Santas. KORU BEAR had a pawmazing Santa Adventures and I created a dog treat pouch using a denim pocket. I received lots of compliments from fellow dog owners that I made several and gifted them. This year for fun, I decided to reuse the BLUE™️ Santa Snacks®️ to create a special holiday dog treat pouch for KORU BEAR holiday 2020 adventures.

Supplies to Make Dog Treat Zipper Pouch

Optional: Decorative duct tape (use to cover the inside of the wrapper and extra seal the edges)

Steps to Make DIY No Sew Dog Treat Pouch

Cut the dog treat wrapper open so it’s a rectangle.

Apply glue (use a hot glue gun) on the zipper and place and align the top of the dog treat wrapper.
Flip the top of the zipper, then apply glue to attach the bottom of the wrapper.

DIY Denim Dog Treat Pouch Blue Buffalo

For convenience, I typically use my back jean pocket to store dog treats. Most of the time, these treats get smush, and my pocket ends up full of crumbs. One reason I was inspired to create a no-sew denim dog treat pouch and perfect to use for our holiday fun adventures.

Supplies Needed:
Old Denim Pocket

String
Scissors
Pen/Marker
Iron

How to No-Sew Denim Dog Treat Pouch

1. Cut the pocket out of an old pair of denim. Keep both sides of the pocket intact.
2. Around the top of the pocket, use a pen to make a mark to poke holes for about an inch apart. Use the tip of the scissors to make the hole larger.
3. Weave the string through the holes. Make sure to leave enough string at the end, to tie the pouch when it’s closed.
4. Set the iron on patch on the front of the pocket. Use the iron to set the design in place.
5. Filled the pouch with BLUE Santa Snacks dog treats.

How To Make Watermelon Blueberry Popsicle


Watermelon is everyone’s favorite summer treat. It’s refreshing and helps you hydrate.

Did you know?  Watermelon is often considered a fruit, but it is a vegetable and a member of the cucumber family. Watermelon is 91.5 percent water and can help you stay hydrated throughout the day. It is low in calories (has 46 calories per cup). Also, watermelon is an excellent source of Vitamin B6 and can help boost brain power. Several studies show that watermelon juice can contribute to reducing muscle soreness, so it’s great to have after a long walk/run with your dog. In moderation, dogs can have watermelon. To avoid intestinal blockage, do not let your dog chew or eat the watermelon rind.

Instagram is a mobile ­app focused on photo sharing. Instagram has quickly become one of the most popular social media platforms. I love Instagram because it focuses on visual content. It is an easy and effective way to connect with others.

For upcoming BlogPaws, here are 7 Tips on How to Use Instagram at a Conference.

Conference Instagram Tips

7 Tips on How to Use Instagram at a Conference

1. Before the conference, spend some time to FOLLOW all the sponsors/brands, speakers, and other blog pals accounts.

2. Know the HASHTAGS! The official conference hashtag is #BlogPaws. The Sheraton Grand at Wild Horse hashtag is #SHWHP.

3. Snap a LIKABLE Photo. Keep in mind quality versus quantity. If you want to share multiple photos, I suggest a collage photo. Use Instaframe app to create the collage.

4. EDIT your photo. There are lots of photo-editing apps but my favorite is Snapseed.

5. Use Instagram FILTER. There’s a purpose why Instagram offers filters – it’s for FUN and for engagement. Did you know? Filtered Instagram photos are 21% more likely to be viewed and 45% more likely to be commented than unfiltered ones.

6. Be mindful of your TIME posting. Post on your account’s ideal time (each account is different based on the time zone).

7. REPLY to comments. Try to turn a comment into a mini-chat conversation. With every comment you receive, reply to it.

8. Give Instagram VIDEO a try. Instagram videos are the latest way to create engagement with your followers.

Happy BlogPaws Instagramming!
