Basket of Hearts Snuggle Tubbie
The Basket of Hearts is part of the Snuggle Tubbie Series and provides lots of comfort for our shelter friends.
The concept of the tubbie patterns are to give a safe little place for the animals to be able to crawl into for privacy and to get away from the hustle and bustle of the shelter activities.

Modeling the Basket of Hearts Snuggle Tubbie is Madeline, a petite 4 year old, 4 pound Chihuahua at the Multnomah County Animal Services, Troutdale, Oregon. She wasn't quite sure what we wanted her to do, but she did a wonderful job anyway. Madeline is waiting for her forever home. If she has captured your heart, make an appointment to visit.
