When a person or the whole family decides to get a dog, then you need to know exactly where he will eat, sleep, etc.d. In a city apartment, you can get by with a rug or a couch, but in private houses it is recommended to make a booth for a dog. This is primarily due to the fact that the dog guards the territory and the house, and keeping it on the streets without a roof over your head is not very good.

Do-it-yourself booth for a four-legged guard. It must be remembered that the dog should be comfortable in her home, so the size of the booth must correspond to the dimensions of an adult pet. Do not forget about the appearance of the booth.
The booth should be on a hill so that moisture does not enter it. The roof of the booth should have a slope back – so water will flow from it – and a small gutter or pipe. So that the dog does not freeze in winter, the booth needs to be insulated. The easiest way to do this is with foam hidden between double walls. In winter, you can curtain the entrance to the booth with a thick cloth or other dense fabric – such a “door” will not prevent the dog from going inside, but it will not let the cold through.
Do-it-yourself dog house can be done in several ways. Let’s talk about one of them. Such a booth consists of 4 wall panels, a floor and a roof.
For walls, we need wooden bars 50×50 cm, which are connected “into a spike”, which provides greater strength. The inside of the wall panels is covered with insulation and plywood sheets, and the outside with clapboard or tight-fitting boards. The floor is made of wood and nailed to the frame from below with nails.
It will be more difficult with the roof. In the rear and front of the roof frame, you need to make outlets of at least 150 cm. External boards are nailed with a protrusion of no more than 10 mm and covered with roofing felt or roofing material so that rainwater does not enter the booth.
As you can understand, a do-it-yourself dog house is not difficult. You just need to decide on the size and type, act carefully and slowly. Then your pet will feel very comfortable in his house.
