That’s definitely odd. I’ve lost some good ones but dang that’s creepy.

Commercial trade in dog or cat fur is illegal. Does that apply when crafting one for someone else for money? I have no idea.

Who ever owned that dog has a mental problem. There is nothing wrong with missing the dog and wishing it was the good old days, but it is dead they need to figure that out.

I wouldn't have a problem making a pillow out of it for her.
D C, you mentioned that commerce in pet parts is illegal. Can you cite that? If it is a federal law then she would have to have it made in her State and not send it across State lines.
If it is illegal, the way you could tell if she is a anti trying to entrap you, is to offer to make it for free. If she declines, then that would make me suspicious.

I always said I was going to have my GSD tanned when she kicked it
2 things stopped me
first she was shedding bad loosing clumps of hair very near the end so it wasn't the beautiful coat she had always had 90# and she would have graded very well any year before she kicked it at 14-15
the second my wife said no
she also kicked it while I was away hunting
I had actually gotten the idea from the Polish cabin at Old World WI where the prized family dog had been tanned and used as the trim on the overcoat.
you know waste not , everything can have a second use.

think about it this way , owner is in their 80-90s not doing great and was always comforted by having the dog lay on their lap or next to them, not going to start a new puppy no energy for that would probably trip on a puppy and break a hip or might have had to move into the assisted living already.
it would depend a bunch on the story , set expectations low as you don't know what condition the fur is in or if it is blue , the hair might slip , not having done domestic dogs before.
if it isn't illegal in whatever state that person or you are in , I don't see why not.
I would suggest just skin and tan and felt back rather than a pillow
