paw stamp in concrete?

5 years ago

Weird question.. rebuilding a mop sink in garage and making a dog shower. The base will be new poured concrete. Thought it would be fun to have a few paw prints for decor. I’d prefer not to use my dog as it would be messy. Thinking some kind of stamp or cookie cutter? I’ve googled the daylights out of premade stamps with no luck. Any idea what would work?

Leave the garage door open, the community cat will walk all over it.

Concrete can burn skin, so if you do end up using their paw, wash the paw right after use. Your's too.

Face of the stamp is less than 1". 2.5 cm. The dog may be offended if he gets passed up for the job.

Lay a piece of Saran Wrap on concrete and put dog's paws down on it.
