DIY dog house
/We've got what we think is a really great design for a dog house and it being the holiday season and all, it seems like a good time to share it!
These dog houses work for us because:
It's a material-efficient design, just one piece of plywood with very little wasted pieces.
They're durable and long-lasting.
They're pretty big, we have big dogs but even the small ones seem to like a little extra room in their house.
They're pretty inexpensive to make.
Here is the basic blueprint:
Materials:
Plywood
1 piece 1/2"
Legs (2x4s)
4 pieces 30"
Door frame (2x4s)
1 piece 14",
1 piece 10.5",
2 pieces14.5"
Lining (2x2s)
4 pieces 28"
4 pieces 14"
Screws:
8 x 3'“ screws for door frame
Box of 1 1/4” exterior deck screws
Tools:
Saw
Impact driver
Measuring Tape
Pencil
Pretty simple!
