Here is a quick Version. The trick is to use a style.
Style:
<Style x:Key="ButtonFocusVisual">
<Setter Property="Control.Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate>
<Rectangle Margin="2" SnapsToDevicePixels="true" Stroke="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.ControlTextBrushKey}}" StrokeThickness="1" StrokeDashArray="1 2"/>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
<LinearGradientBrush x:Key="ButtonNormalBackground" EndPoint="0,1" StartPoint="0,0">
<GradientStop Color="#F3F3F3" Offset="0"/>
<GradientStop Color="#EBEBEB" Offset="0.5"/>
<GradientStop Color="#DDDDDD" Offset="0.5"/>
<GradientStop Color="#CDCDCD" Offset="1"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="ButtonNormalBorder" Color="#FF707070"/>
<Style x:Key="ToggleButtonStyle1" TargetType="{x:Type ToggleButton}">
<Setter Property="FocusVisualStyle" Value="{StaticResource ButtonFocusVisual}"/>
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource ButtonNormalBackground}"/>
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="{StaticResource ButtonNormalBorder}"/>
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1"/>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.ControlTextBrushKey}}"/>
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="1"/>
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type ToggleButton}">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<ContentPresenter HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}" Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}" RecognizesAccessKey="True" SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding SnapsToDevicePixels}" VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"/>
<Border x:Name="on" Width="25" Height="25" Background="LightGray" CornerRadius="2,0,0,4" Margin="10,0,0,0">
<TextBlock x:Name="onText" Text="On" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
</Border>
<Border x:Name="off" Width="25" Height="25" Background="LightGray" CornerRadius="0,2,4,0">
<TextBlock x:Name="offText" Text="Off" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
</Border>
</StackPanel>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="false">
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="#ADADAD"/>
</Trigger>
<Trigger Property="IsChecked" Value="true">
<Setter TargetName="on" Property="Background" Value="LightBlue"/>
<Setter TargetName="onText" Property="Foreground" Value="White"/>
</Trigger>
<Trigger Property="IsChecked" Value="False">
<Setter TargetName="off" Property="Background" Value="LightBlue"/>
<Setter TargetName="offText" Property="Foreground" Value="White"/>
</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
