My idea is to create dog apparel and accessories out of re-usable material and textile waste. Especially in San Francisco, when the weather isn't always warm, a dog may need a sweater or raincoat to keep dry. Consumer's would be able to save money as well as create a sustainable method to help the environment. Stuffed animals, chew toys, and blankets could also be made from textile waste. The link below is a site dedicated to DIY pet tips and shows good examples of how to start the process.
