I Want to Build a Dog House - Help!

By Dirk Gruenberg


If you plan on having your dog spend any amount of time outdoors, you are going to need to provide him with shelter from the elements. Whether it is warm out or cold out, your dog will need refuge from the stifling heat or the freezing cold.

A dog house is a great way to give your pet the refuge he needs from the elements, as well as a place to feel safe and secure.

The best part is that a dog house is fairly easy to build on your own. It can be a fun, simple project, and you only need a few tools to build a dog house.

Alright, so are you up for it? Do you want your dog to have his very own dog house? If so, your dog can consider himself quite lucky. Of course, you should put some thought into the planning process. What exactly do you need to consider?

It is sensible to first of all decide on the size of the dog house. As you can imagine, this should be based on your dog's size.

If he is still a puppy, make sure to do your research on how big he is going to grow. It would be a pity if the house ended up too small for his future needs.

The length, the width, and the height are all important. Make it long and wide enough for your dog to stretch out while laying down and high enough for standing. If you do that your dog will move freely and it will be very enjoyable for him.

Another important aspect is the material you will use. I can only recommend using high quality material only.

If done right, the dog house will be useable for a long, long time, so it is worth the extra money to have it be of high quality.
