Plot twist: the dog will stay on the couch forever and never use this house

You might monitor the temps for the summer. Don't want to build a sauna for him. I know I built a dog house when I was a kid for our dog. He tunneled under it. It never dawned on me that in 100 degree summer temps there was no air movement in it and it was super hot in there. He would lay in the cool shaded dirt under it that he promptly dug out! Likely not as hot where your at, but in the summer months maybe a fan you can block off of the winter on a thermostat (like an attic fan) to move air.

You can add a staircase near the low end of the roof for a doggie sun deck. Just run the stairs width wise for a small footprint and maybe throw astroturfing on the roof. Cool build!

I would add steps on the other side so the doggie could hang on the roof

Astro turf roof 😊

I am surprised you didn't add a window. 😮

You can always use a kiddie pool for those hot days when your dog wants to cool off. Will you put a doggy door or curtin on it in the winter to keep the heat in?

Should have made it a little bigger & elevated the water bowl. He'll have to bend so for over to drink from it. Our Golden Retrivers do well with elevated food/water bowls.
Otherwise looks great.

The way you switched the doghouse, when it rains will direct the water coming off the roof(ruff) will go into your garage. At least that’s the way it looks to me.

heat rises, if you want to have a space well heated put the heating element on the bottom

Turned out great... how about giving him a porch light(fake) and his own address numbers to complete his doggy condo. Lol. I love your work!!😊

[SableSunsets]

That was beautiful!! You will definitely need a flap in the winter!! Tractor supply has the livestock bowl you could have mounted to the house and had an auto refill on it.
I’m sure I’m not the only one Wishing it was like 10 inches wider or longer. If he is 9 months old he will definitely be getting bigger!
I don’t think you said what the dimensions inside are ? Could be bigger but can’t tell. Real life is always more accurate than a video ahaha. God bless !

Plot twist: Harper is gonna play in it and the dog will lay on the couch for eternity

Mike from Modusrtial Maker: I built Tex a rooftop doghouse.

Seems a bit small for him. Your upper body torso couldn't even fit when trying to sheet it on the inside. You had to take down that middle stud. Ho is he going to fit in there AND he's just a pup. Definitely should've gone bigger on this one to account for Rocky's growth. And I guess you can always build another one. And heat rises not down. Definitely add a solar fan for the big little guy. Loved the build tho

You need to use your influence with Ryobi/Rigid to get them to do a 18V Coil Nailer!

[billandbeverly]

You are very inventive with your body movements, using them as levers and props

[manuelgarcia]

Awesome dog house, I think I will try and build this for my two chow chows and see how it goes (much cheaper of course)

[BrandonP.]

Great Job on the build👍 Cant wait until the next project.

[JayyyG]

You should’ve painted it dark black like you said! I’ve never seen dark black before 😂

[dorotheaisserstedt]

Ganz prima ! Der Hund ist ja auch Teil der Familie. Also soll er ebenso gut wohnen.
