Step 1: $4.58 of paracord plus pvc pipe, because I didn't want to bother cutting my sister's scrap...

Tool and keyring from existing supplies.

Bah, instructions online are lame.

I will fake it.

Little series of square knots, might come loose, meant to keep cord anchored.

Dull garden shears are not the best cutting tool...

YouTube tutorial, "hangman's noose." My thought for interchangeable toys.

RIP, mauled toy...

Survived first 2 minutes use.

Preschool nephew can use it safely, he's so often chewed on.

Knot slowly coming undone, toy being torn to bits. Dog snarling, thrashing, and pulling like the hunting hound she is.

I declare huge success.

The dog only wants to chew on the fishing lure, not the human.

I shoul do that with peanut....

I had totally forgotten that I did this with my own crazy dog over a year ago, and it was a spectacular success.

Paracord can be carefully melted to keep it from unraveling, though my clumsy knot-technique is mostly to blame. But it still works. Once that toy is demolished I'll pry it loose and "hang" another one.
