Home Sweet Home

The customer dogs that stay here spend their time going from kennels outside to their crates in our basement to sleep at night. Our own dogs in training have a different routine. They have free play time a few times a day but they sleep outside in barrels stuffed with straw. The youngsters have no problem with their homes but Scott decided to build them something a little fancier - their own dog houses! They are not painted yet but the dogs don't care, they find them very useful:

For example, if you need to see over the fence, you can sit on topand if you get sleepy you can use the head rest and the most useful, if you are not sure if it's your name that they are yelling to stop the barking, you can look at the name plate.

I love them! So hard to find nice ones like that! Great job and lucky dogs.

Did he get the plans from somewhere or did he come up with it himself?

He copied them from how the sled dog kennels do it.
