Building a HEATED DOG HOUSE for Canadian Winters

In this video I build an entire dog house from scratch, complete with a heated floor to keep my dog warm in the winter. A step-by-step, detailed build making a fully insulated tiny house that can handle all weather. This luxury dog house looks modern and has lighting feature that makes it look like a real mansion. I show you framing, electrical and in-floor heat, insulation, siding, cedar siding, roofing, trim and we try it out to see how it handles the cold temperatures.

I make money from the ads in the video and reinvest most of it to make better builds and content! So I'd appreciate it if you turn off your ad-blocker or pay the small fee for YouTube premium so the the creators you watch get paid 🙂

It's cool that you mounted the digital thermostat on the inside of the house so the dog can keep track of what the temp is.

you could probably put this on a sidewalk in nyc and sell it for 150k

I'm a 71 yr old female who was introduced to this video by my son, and you've inspired me to take carpentry 101. I was guessing this is probably a $5K dog house, and no, I don't think $2k is too much for your girl. She is loved and I love your design ❤😊

I’m not a carpenter nor I have a dog but watched the whole video. Now I want to take carpentry classes 😅.
Excellent video and excellent skills! 👍🏼

I’m not much of a carpenter or building contractor, so I just bought a nice dog house. Turns out it’s a 2, 000 plus square foot dog house, with a basement, five bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a huge lot for my dog to run and exercise in! He’s kind enough to let my wife, daughter and me live with him in his house!

The one thing I thought of that could make your life wayyy easier is make the roof hinge up, so you can access the inside for cleaning, repairs, etc. a lot easier

Dog dad of the year. Hands down. Such a beautiful build for a wonderful dog.

I live in Sweden but I would love to build something like this for my Dachshund. She deserves to be pampered.

I know you aren’t a professional, but this is the most education I’ve gotten on how to build a simple complete house all in one video!

Did anyone else chuckle when he said the metal roofing was a bit too much for a dog house? Not the heated floor, the deck lighting, the ....🤣🤣🤣Love it!! Lucky doggie.

nice blessed dogs with nice warm home wish all the poor dogs without homes or houses could enjoy something like this

[davidrutledge]

The quality of your work, the design insights and foresights, the breadth of your skill set, the quality of your videos, your communication skills — blows me away. I see big things ahead for you. And isn’t Canada great! 😊

I built one that's similar for our pup about 8 years ago. She went into it exactly one time. Bless her heart.

You inspire me to try this. Then my dog and I could look out the window from my bed at night and admire how pretty it is!

I think the best thing for a dog is to be indoors with his family. Or if he absolutely needs to be outside, then with another dog. Dogs are pack animals and don't want to be alone

[margaretpadilla]

That did come awesome, ppl don’t understand how much we love our Fir babies 🦮🦮🐕

[Squicx]

Imagine how cozy and warm that lil bud must be. Especially when snowing, it's heated, warm lighting just playing with his dog toy or just sleeping. Gotta be the peak of existence

I love how the cost of a steel roof ‘seemed unnecessary for a dog house’ but the rest seemed totally necessary.

Am so grateful that pawrents love their furbabies & take such extra good care!

I wish every animal had an owner like you. This is amazing.
