I think my dad can make the dog house for Baku (our Siberian Husky). The plan seems very detailed and easy to understand. I agree the having a raised floor is necessary especially for huskies.

Thanks!

Love the dog house plans, I haven’t considered so many different options. Of course the one with raised floor is perfect, this helps cool the dog’s shelter a bit and keeps little critters out too! Thanks for the links, great stuff

I like your comment about raising the doghouse up on posts as that is what I’ve done. It’s 105 degrees here right now. My pups sleep below the house in the shade in the day then go into the house at night.

Great post. I particularly agree with your point about considering the size of the dog house in relation to how the dogs behave as it can easily be something not thought about or taken lightly.

Glad to see you are advising people to build the dog house up off the ground. Not only will it keep the floor dry but if put a little insulation below the flooring the dogs will be much warmer and not have the cold of the soil traveling up in to the dog house. To keep the insulation in place you can simply staple some plastic over the bottom of the shed.
