Our Dog Cole

Dog House – Step by Step

Anyone can build a doghouse – if you have the right instructions.

Last year, we adopted a new member to our family, Cole, a flat-coated black retriever. A fine dog. We quickly realized that Cole needed a doghouse since he was out in our enclosed backyard during the day, and needed some shelter when we weren’t home, from the rain. Now I could have bought a plastic doghouse at Home Hardware but I already had quite a lot of scrap lumber and plywood , I thought fun to  build one myself. I was able to find instruction on how to build a dog house, bird houses, and outdoor sheds and started on my project. The dog house looked great and my son and I followed the easy directions and built a few other projects around the house.
