- Treat-dispensing toy: Cut a small hole in a plastic water bottle, fill it with treats, and seal the top to make a treat-dispensing toy.
- Fleece tug toy: Cut a strip of fleece fabric and tie the ends together to make a simple, soft tug toy.
- DIY squeaky toy: Cut an old t-shirt or fleece fabric into a small square, put a squeaker toy inside, and tie the corners together to make a simple squeaky toy.
