I use clothes that are just worn out for cat toys (since I don't have dogs). I also roll them up, with catnip in the middle, and do a quick sew up of the seam. With cats, they last a lot longer.

Another thing you can do if you have too many jeans that don't fit is donate some of them. Unless the dog toys work out too well and you need more and more.
