Instructions
Research the puppy's breed to estimate its adult size. Base the couch's size on the puppy's estimated adult size for a long-lasting piece of pet furniture.
Lay one foam cushion on the ground. Place another cushion perpendicular to the one on the ground, creating an "L" shape. Staple the cushions together along their connection points. Make sure that the staples puncture through both cushions for a secure fit. This "L" shape forms the back and base of the couch.
Staple square-shaped foam cushions to either side of the "L" shape foam cushion to create couch arms.
Lay a chosen fabric across the cushions. Form the fabric around the cushions and pin the fabric's loose ends together.
Remove the fabric carefully from the foam with the pins intact. Sew the pinned areas together with a sewing machine. Remove the pins after the sewing stitches are set.
Attach the fabric to the foam cushion assembly. Make sure that all stitches are holding tight as the fabric stretches along the foam.
