Kingsbrook Animal Hospital’s DIY “Potty Bell” for dogs!
Even if you don’t live in Frederick, MD- this is a great idea to help with training your dog!
Materials needed:
Ribbon
Bells
‘D’ ring (or key ring)
Scissors
Lighter
Hot glue gun
Step 1. Tie a loop around your doorknob and “measure” how big the loop needs to be and how long.
Step 2. Cut the ribbon a little longer than the desired length (this gives you room to tie on the bells later).
Step 3. Singe the end of your ribbon with a lighter to prevent fraying.
Step 4. Slide the bells onto the D-ring or Key ring.
Step 5. Tie the end of the ribbon (opposite side of doorknob loop) onto the D-ring or Key-ring.
Step 6. Tie a bow onto the unfinished knots, cut and singe ends.
Step 7. Re-enforce the bow by placing a small amount of hot glue under the bow’s knot.
Step 8. Tie a bow to loop around door knob.
Step 9: Hang on your door and introduce to your pup!
