I’ve got a roof over my head to protect me from the elements. So I decided to protect my “four legged” family member, too, with this easy-to-build dog house. It’ll give her shade on hot days and shelter on cold ones. And I plan on decorating it to suit her awesome personality!
This basic plan is designed for larger dogs, but it could have easily been adjusted to fit a smaller or medium sized dog too.
I made mine from inexpensive construction materials - including recycled cedar boards from an old deck, plywood, and pine framing lumber. The whole thing cost less than $100. (A similar store bought dog house could easily go for $400+.)
I looked around for a while to find some inexpensive plans to build a nice one. I eventually found this awesome site that offers dog house plans and many other home project plans. I ended up getting some other cool ideas that could improve my place.
