The Comfort of a Wooden Dog House

Expecting your dog to stay outside can be a tough and guilt-stricken task but sometimes pets are too clumsy and track in too much dirt to allow them to be in the house at all times. A wooden dog house is a good way to give your dog its own living space and sleep comfortably outdoors. There are many aspects of a wooden dog house that make it a comfortable and secure place to leave your pets.

The wood to make dog houses is one of the reasons these structures will make your pet so comfortable. Redwood and cedar dog houses will stay beautiful and sturdy for a long time, even after being exposed to all of the weather elements your climate has to offer season after season. Cedar also has the ability to repel insects like flies and fleas, which is good news for you as well as your pet. Your pet will have a comfortable home to come home to year after year, as wood is very durable and long lasting. These woods will also stay cool in extreme heat and do not warp or split due to moisture.

Many wooden dog houses now come with quality insulation built inside. It is designed to make the house stay cool in the summer and keep in warmth during the winter, eliminating the guilt you will feel leaving the dog out in the cold.

Rain will also have a hard time flooding or disturbing the wooden dog house. Most houses are made so the floor on the inside is elevated.

You will probably be more apt to put an attractive looking structure in the middle of your yard than a tacky one. All too often, dog owners will place the home behind the house so it does not disturb the look of the yard. Training the dog to stay in its dog house is harder when they are placed behind the house because dogs are extremely social animals and they will not want to remain in a place where they cannot see or hear what is going on with the people around them.

Wooden dog houses can also be built with doors placed off to the side rather than in the center. This is a comfortable for your dog because it allows the dog to hide from harsh wind or rain coming inside. There are also detachable vinyl flaps available for some doors to allow the dog to go in and out easily as well as protect them from the wind or rain.

Wooden dog houses are also available in many sizes. A dog should be able to sit, stand, and turn around easily inside the house and wooden dog houses are easier to be custom made to fit the unique size of your canine.

There are also many accessories that can add to the comfort of a wooden dog house. Cushions, pads, and mats can make the house more comfortable and most will match the wood chosen. Expensive and luxurious accessories such as air conditioning and heating units can be purchased and hooked up inside the house. Wooden dog houses can also be custom engraved or painted to match your yard as well as your dog's unique personality.
