Thank you so much for this tutorial. I made one last Christmas in fleece for my daughter's dog who loves to snuggle under a blanket. She got a rescue puppy today so now they are a 2 dog family I've just ordered more fleece to make one as a Christmas present this year for the new puppy Monty. Thank you once again x

I love your uncomplicated way of making these so lovely! And your Doxies are beautiful!!! Thanks!

Hi Whitney, My daughter's Boston Terrier, Jack, is always cold and loves to burrow. I wanted to make him one of these for Christmas and remember seeing your tutorial when you first put it out. I've been subscribed to you for many years and love your sewing videos. So I found it on one of your playlists and now I can make it. He's going to love it!!! Thank you!

I have 3 chihuahuas who will be happy campers this winter!!! They love to burrow and cozy up when its cold outside. I can't wait to get fabric and get started. Your instructions were super clear and concise. Thank you Whitney!!!

Thanks so much for sharing this! I have a Dachsund also and had admired the Puppy Pockets also, so I went to Hancock Fabrics today and purchased the materials. While thinking about the best way to make this I thought maybe I should google how to make to see if anyone had posted. So happy to see your video and I will be using it. Thanks!

This is such a great tutorial! I have a jack russell who LOVES burrowing into anything she can (I think it's just a jack russell trait), so I reckon she will LOVE this!

Whitney, you are a life saver! I have been trying to figure out how to assemble these so that the top has a finished seam for a couple of years! Your secret of leaving the opening in the inside pouch to pull the outside through is genius. I just made a beautiful UNC one as a Christmas gift. I will be proud to give it....

Keep the pet sewing projects coming! I love your pups, they are so cute! We have a hybrid Scorkie (scottie/yorkie) that we adopted a little over a month ago. I already sewed him a bed from your bed tutorial amd since he loves to burrow I'll have to try the puppy pocket too! Ty!

Thanks for the easy directions! I've made one and it turned out so well, I'm onto my second.

Love this! I have 2 small terriers and a Chiweenie. One of the terriers has a hard time burrowing under a thin blanket, but this will definitely help!

I love this! It’s a really easy sewing project. I have two terrier puppies and I’m going to make two of these for them as well as for my cats

All three of you are just adorable! Thanks for the tutorial, mine are burrowers too.

Yes, that is where I first saw one :) Then I started noticing them on other pages too. Love the idea of puppy pockets so much!

What a great idea! I have 3 cats (Constance, Tigger & Butterscotch) and 1 Cairn Terrier. This will be a perfect project for my treadle machine this week, so thanks Whitney!

i have a jack russel terrier mix and my mom actually made her a puppy pocket a long time ago! and she loves it! and your dogs are so cute!

Hi Whitney! Thanks so much for the wonderful video. I am beyond beginner and still managed to create a great sleep sack! I have an Italian greyhound that is always freezing, so I actually doubled the inner lining. Your directions were great, and it came out perfect! She ❤️❤️❤️ it, thank you!

We had two Doxies up until early December when our Roger passed. Now just Rosie... I made them something similar and called it a sack bed but used batting inside too for extra cushion and warmth. They loved it to pieces... I had used flannel pj material and after many years of washing it got retired. As you know Doxies are snugglers so we left two opening on the back side corners so they could escape another way. It often looked like we had a two headed doxie. Thanks for inspiration.

Such a cute tutorial! Thanks! I have two chihuahuas, myself. They are both boys and much older. Pepe and Pancho. I love those guys as if they were my human children.

We just got a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel lab mix puppy on Saturday! I will totally be making this for her! Thanks Whitney!!!

Hi Whitney, loved your tutorial.. We also have two Dachshunds and my little Ruby also loves to burrow. Thanks

Whitney, that is so cute, I have three schitzu, I made them one 2 years ago, the one he uses his to lay on top of or to hide toys in, as well as the other two, well, they just had no interest in being inside.... But it is so cute, if I were a dog, I would lay in there. Great tutorial!! Thank you for sharing!

I love this thanks! Two mini doxies as well, and a boxer mix.

I love this, just yesterday I made a pet bed for my chap, his a Cairn x and looks like a large black Westie. I'm definately going to try this one out too.

This is adorable! So cute and the puppies are cute too!

Love this!!!! Your pups are so adorable. thanks for the idea.!

We have a 6 yr old male Pug and a 3 yr old female Boston Terrier. The Pug hates being covered up, but the Boston is always curling up under any blanket she can find, so I'm looking forward to making of these for her. Thank you so much for the tutorial.

Your pups are so cute! I love seeing them on your videos. I have a doxypoo named Dib. I will have to make this for him. Thanks for sharing!

I also have a Dachshund, Millie (pictured on the left) I'm going to make one for her and our cats right now. Thank you for sharing your talent 💕

Love this! I'll have to try it. I have 2 King Charles Cavaliers. They are such good girls and would love this snuggly pocket to cuddle in together.

Thanks for sharing. This is one piece less than the one that I made for my dogs. It was from a store bought pattern. I will make one of these next. I have 2 chihuahuas and a dachshund, 4 cats, and a 2 guinea pigs. I made similar bags for the guinea pigs.

Aww! So darling! And your dogs snuggling in it, crazy cute! Me and my guy have a Sheltie, she likes pillows and armchairs but is too furry for blankets or puppypockets. We also have two house cats, might make this for them! They love anything cave-like. =) Thanks for this!

Thank you for your tutorial, Whitney! It is great. If you were sewing a snuggle sleeper for one dachshund, how much fabric would you use?

Thanks Whitney! This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for to make my dachsie Arlo!

I love this I have a dotson too and she loves blankets and being covers up. I think I'm going to try to make this for her. I also have a chihuahua and a bigger dog she is a blue healer and dalmatian.

I've always wanted to get one of these for my mums dog but they are so expensive in his size, great tutorial, I'm definitely going to try this :)

Hi, great idea. How would I expand it for a medium sized dog please? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thx!

Thanks for the tutorial. I am making this slightly smaller for a friend of mine who has a sweet little doggie who loves to burrow. This will be perfect for her!

so cute! I have a black lab mix and a conjure (small parrot )

I'm so glad that my tutorial was what you were looking for! I'm sure your dachshund will love it! I would love to see pics when you're done :)

This is a great project, I have three pups, a beagle, Shepard mix and a chihuahua. This will make a great bed for my chihuahua because I find him all the time curled up in the pillow cases on the pillows on my bed :) thanks for sharing this!

Thank you!

Omg this is awesome!! My mom has a dachshund/chihuahua mix and another mixed dog we dot know what sh is and they both love going in blankets!! Def gonna tell her to do this :) too bad my Boston terrier hates going under blankets lol even when it's freezing!

That’s just genius! Hello from the uk 🙋🇬🇧just found you. Subscribed x

I've got 3 cats and one that LOVES being covered up. She would really go for something like this. I've gone into our bedroom and witnessed her using her nose to open the covers enough on the bed so she can crawl in, lol! She would really like one of these pockets. I was wondering if sewing fleece requires any special considerations before sewing. How big/small of a stitch should you use with the fleece, or doesn't it matter?

Yep! Love you :)

Aww your doggies are so cute!! My dog Nephews & Nieces would love one of those's Puppy pockets!!

So cute!! I'll have to make one for our doggy. He's a beagle-lab mix so he looks like mini black lab

Awesome tutorial. Just what I was looking for to make for my 2 dachshunds as well. Thank you so much :)

I don't have a pet but my cousin has the smallest chihuahua, she's mixed ,I'm not sure with what, and loves to burrow in blankets especially when you're trying to use them. I might try this for her

Such a cute idea! I see making at least 2 of these in my near future. hehe. Thanks again for your great ideas/tutorials. :)

I love your dachshunds. I have two miniatures. I made them beds with an attached snuggle bag, and they adore them.

Before I had come to see this video, I had made my little chihuahua her own little "puppy pocket" although I called it her little "nest". I used my son's baby blanket (he's 18 now) comforter. I folded it in half length wise and sewed it from the bottom and up the side. Left the top opened. Then I took another blanket and folded it and tucked it in. I'd show you but I don't know how upload a picture on this site. Thank you for sharing.

One of my two cats loves snuggling under my living room throw and napping fully covered up....I will definitely be making this for him!

Thanks for this, I wanted to do one this week for my dog, a Cairn x ?, I am sure he will love it. Your pocket measurements should be big enough for him as well. :)

My Jack-ween would LOVE this! He is a burrower too

I want to make one for my baby chihuahua. She was the runt of the batch and is verrrrrry small, so what would you reccomend the size to be?

I love this Whitney. Of my two dogs, 1 large and 1 medium size. I think the smaller one would totally rock this!!!!! lol thx for this video :)

Thanks!!! I will be making two of these (have 2 chi's), using your video... kinda thinking about making these (to donate) for my local adoption center... have been wanting to find a way to help dogs & cats waiting for adoption...Bless U

I have a Lhasapoo named Cece. She loves to stay by my sewing machine paddle when I make something and also she loves laying on my stash of fabric just like Annie did.

I have a female 3 yr. Old shnauzer. She loves to get under the sheets and blankets. I'll give this a try and see if she likes it. Thank you for your videos.

I am going to make my dogs one, but I figured to let an opening so they can see where to get in, instead of having it lay flat, I thought of putting a piece of garden hose from one side to the other through an opening before I close that outer hem, only on the top half. I wonder if that will work, it should.

I made one for her and she loves it! I made mine reversable!

hi Whitney i have 7 dogs and 10 cats , i needs to see a good video on doggy nappies for my ole dog that's 17.

I have two little chihuahuas who would LOVE this!

I would love to make puppy pockets for my Basenjis but 2 of the 3 shred any blanket that is not crocheted. I do plan to make dog beds for them off your dog bed tutorial though. =}

Why is it that Dachshunds are always cold? I'm looking to make a snuggle bed for my Dachs too, just want a design that keeps the 'entrance' a bit open, so I know there's always enough oxygen getting in.

I will be following your tutorial to make a snuggle sack for my two mini dachshunds x

We have something like this for our cat but she only likes the type with a rigid opening, eg a wire running though the hem.

Long haired black doxie and a part red wolf and herding breed dog. I love this idea for Sass E. the doxie, Brand E. doesn't like to be covered. Thanks!

Awesome! My doxies will love it! Maybe it will discourage them from taking over my crochet afghans....but I doubt it! :D

Cute!!

This is TOO ADORABLE!!! I'm DEFF Going to have to make 1 For My Lil' Guy! I have A 4 Year Old Long Haired Chihuahua Named Papi! & I know that he Would LOVE THIS! Thnx 4-Posting this!!! ;) XOXO

I have a Boxer/Shar Pei mix named Lulu (or Lady Lulu by me) that just loves to play. Then I have 3 cats- Xerxes, who stays at my best friends house, Zio is a stray that we took in that's usually too shy to be around peopple but brave enough to come in the hosue when it's time to eat and sleep (usually with my mom) then my third cat Desmond who is a little momma's boy that always stays by my side when I'm sewing or card making. :D

love this!

Great idea! I have a cat & 2 dogs a Cairn terrier and a long haired doxie :-)

I would love to make one of these for our little dogs, but especially for my husband's dog Gypsy. She loves to snuggle and really needs a little bed like this one! I wish that my sewing machine wasn't broken so I could make one faster than hand sewing. My husband has bought me several sewing machines in the past 3 years, and I just have bad luck when it comes to using one! GRRR! I can never seem to get the tension right and it always bunches up the thread on the underside. (pulls hair out!) ;) ♥

This is great, from a few years ago =) I need something like this for my furry kids because my husband is extremely fussy about puppy fir on his clothes - tch! Go figure. Anyway, I have a Beagle/Corgi mix, Brandy and a Poodle/Havanese Mix/Foster. They are too cute!!! Great video, thanks so much.

me too. I have to make one of these for my granddog.

have you ever put something to help make the opening stiff so they can get in a little better

I made a dog bed tutorial as well. If you search Dog Bed Whitney on youTube it's the first one that comes up :)

Are you from the east coast?

my little chihuahua would love this-shes always trying to go under our blankets

Love this! I have 3 dachshunds and a Bassett hound.

I have 3 Yorkies 2 toy size. (Mother and only living son 10 & 8) and I have a teacup 1 lb 12 oz They love to be under the blankets. I have an old fleece "snuggie" I am going to turn into one of these. Dee

Holy cow, where have I been? Last I saw you only had one weenie. Wow. Congrats on your second Longdog. :3 Peace and Wienie-ness forever

my cats would love this!

Awesome!! 2 doxies at our house!

Well, Snoopy the mix Jack Russell /Chicuacua is going to get a puppy pocket from Grandma E.. Then maybe he will only sleep on /in the pocket and not on the couch or at least take up less room. Cute tutorial

I LOVE this I have a BostonTerrier going to make this for her she s going to LOVE it thanks :)

I need to try this! I have two dachshunds. They always want to get under my blankets and sleep.

Where did you get this fabric atn

Going to make a jelly roll race quilt :)

awww doggies :D I have a little dog too.He is really friendly with people and loves to eat all day long (oddly he isn't fat) He is a bit old, 11 years old.

Brilliant! Love it : ) Marie : )

How about doing something that oucld suit a cat ?

My Dachshund will love this!

What is the material you used for the lining?

Nope...born and raised in Oklahoma :)

What a fantastic idea, and Whitney your dogs are so adorable. We have a cat and she'd LOVE this. She is constantly climbing into bags and boxes and even my handbags, whether she fits or not! Its cold in Northern Ireland pretty much all year round, so she'd probably love a snuggle bag despite being a long haired cat. Boy oh boy does she puff up to nearly twice the fur in the winter. She looks massive but its all fur, she looks so funny.....just a big grey fur ball with eyes, lol. Lee xx

so cute! :3
