Updated Doggie Station!

We were devastated when Podog passed away last year.  He was 15 years old and we loved him dearly.  It was a huge decision to commit to another dog, but we agreed as a family that we would find one.  Here is a picture of Podog shortly before he passed.



We got Kopono from the Human Society last June.


A couple of years ago I made a dog station for Podog out of an old scrapbook stand a friend gave me. There was a missing drawer and it was pretty junky.  I spiced it up and made Podog a doggie station.


After Podog passed away I let the doggie station sit and din't use it much because it brought back too many memories.  I finally got in gear and decided to redo the doggie station completely and use it for Kopono.  First, I took out the drawers and took all of the scrapbook stickers off and sanded.


Then I painted the front of each drawer a light brown.



 Next, I used contact paper and covered the inside of each drawer and the top of the station.




I made labels for each drawer and a name tag for Kopono.  I laminated each one and centered them on the doggie station.





Here is what is in each of the drawers.






I added a framed puppy picture of Kopono and a jar of dog biscuits to the top.


Here is the finished product and a happy dog!
