Do you love hand stitching? Maybe you enjoy needlepoint or other crafty projects. If so, we have a way you can help animals in need across the country.

We are looking for 2 volunteers to help us turn gently loved kid stuffed toys into adorable pet toys. The toys you work on have been sanitized and anything that could be harmful to a dog has been removed. (Plastic eyes, noses, beads inside, etc.)

The toys are cut open -- usually on the belly -- and will either have a squeaker inside or not. (We make both available.) You stitch the toy closed. Some of our volunteers use a chain stitch. Others use fancier stitches. Either is fine. Familiarity with hand stitching is all that is required.

The toys are then sold and 100% of the profits are donated to animal causes. Feel free to email if you have any questions.

Glad Dogs Nation adorable handcrafted pet toys begin as gently loved kid stuffed toys, saving them from the landfill and, thereby, helping the environment.
