    gettin cold need a new dog house! show me your DIY dog houses!

    As title states im lookin for cool dog house designs!






    Since tornado I've been using my akc approved 8ft 6 panel kennel. But it has no cover. I have a two dog dog box for hunting i don't want to use anymore either cause its insulated and boredom sets in labs so fast they would rip apart the inside.

    My dogs wont walk near anythink that looks like a dog house. Instead we get old t shirts and cover em up. Its funny watchin em walk around with graphic t-shirts.

    Ya mine are inside at night outside during the day most the time.

    Lmao about the shirts. I have dog jackets somewhere unless they were lost in the tornado. They are wader material and keep them super warm. But dont wanna use a jacket outside of hunting.

    I may try and build my own. Try and get as close to one of the two dog ones.

    My female is a spoiled brat. In our bedroom she sleeps Brandon's old toddler bed!

    My wienerlab sleeps inside in her cage. But once I get a house and out of this apartment, we are getting a bigger dog. It be cool to build a nice looking dog house.

    One thing I have seen and love is a nice dog door at a more random then usual place(not near the back door) with a connected large cage. Pup is inside with the rest of us, but doesn't have run all over when dirty to get to indoor cage. My personal favorite, because the cold Rain wind snow etc sucks, but for dogs the heat is worse IMO.

    My 2 are kinda spoiled, here's their place.

    They're kind enough to let the rest of us live with them.
