Building a Dog Obstacle Course - The Easy Course Building Guide

With a little imagination and a lot of patience you can build a really nice obstacle course for your dog. It is very important however, that you make sure you make your course suitable for all kinds of weather. You will want to make sure you make your track sturdy enough so that you don't have to put it up and tear it down every single time you want to practice the obstacles with your dog.

You will need to keep in mind to buy materials that will be suitable for your dog and he/she will not get hurt when going through the obstacle. Tables and boards must be bolted down and standing horizontally. So that it is hard to knock them over.

If you are using bars always make sure that they are loose so that they fall if they are even the little bit touched. It is really important to make your obstacle on pavement or gravel. Make sure it is not somewhere, where the rain or snow is going to swamp the area. If this happens the game will have to be stopped.

Some fun things to use that your dog will love are; tires, tunnels and slanted wood planes. These things your dog will love and you will love just as much when you get him/her to know trick and obstacle he/she will need to know. Please remember that making your own obstacle course always gives the risk of the dog getting hurt.

When doing obstacle jumps please set limitations for your dog. When the dog is jumping his obstacle jumps it gives him encouragement. The dog might get it in his mind that he can jump the fence. When making a tunnel or tunnels for your dogs obstacle course does not start with long black tubes.

Your dog will be intimidated. Consider trying to use a clear or light colored cloth. It is pertinent that the dog see a familiar face at the end of the tunnel. Ramps are very easy to make. Start with a piece of wood and make it slanted and sturdy. Bolt the wood to a piece of metal or something sturdy in the obstacle.

Try to remember that your dog must recognize basic commands. Your dog will not be able to learn an obstacle course without them. Make sure your dog has confidence in you. The confidence that the dog has in his owner will make it easier for you as the owner to teach your dog the obstacle. Always make sure you have a treat or a toy around the obstacle course. This will make it easier in training the dog to do everything he has to do. To teach the dog to jump over a jumping obstacle throw a treat or a toy over the obstacle the dog is to jump.

If you have trouble trying to get your dog to do the obstacle course make sure you have not over exhausted the dog. The dog may be too tired if you make her/him do the obstacle too much. It is very important that you make sure your dog has enough breaks and enough water during the training of the obstacle course.

If your dog does not want to cooperate maybe try letting it go for the day and try again another day. Remember yours and your dog's goal before anything else is that your dog passes through each obstacle without any kind of problem. If this isn't happening then there is something wrong. There is always a reason a dog isn't doing what you want it to do. The hard thing is getting inside his/her mind to figure it out. Be patient with him/her and the obstacle will eventually work out.

Building an Inexpensive Dog House

Building a dog house is a great way to protect your dog from the outside elements. You can build a nice dog house in a few hours with materials you may be able to find lying around in your garage. If you would like to build an inexpensive house for your dog, here are some tips you need to follow:

Search around for materials you aren't using like plywood, pine wood 2x4s, shingles, nails, and other materials. To build a dog house, you will need the following tools:


Pen or pencil
Hammer
Table saw or circular saw
Shingle utility knife
Roofing nails
Regular nails
Plywood
Pressure-treated lumber
Roofing shingles
Tape measure

The materials you need include:


One exterior grade plywood sheet (about 4 feet by 8 feet and 5/8'' thick)
Two 2''x4''x8' pressure treated boards
One 2''x4''x8' untreated boards
One box of 1-5/8'' galvanized deck screws
One bundle of composite roof shingles
One tube of wet/dry roof cement

If you don't have some of the materials lying around, go to a construction site and rummage through their scrap pile. You will be able to find a lot of 2x4 untreated and treated boards that were cut too small, etc. Ask the contractor if you can have their unused "scrap" and bring it home to build your dog house. You can also find roofing shingles at a construction site.

You need to determine the type of dog house you are building. Obtain your dog's measurements and then tack on the proper amount of space needed for your particular dog. The common dog house plans include an A-frame or a slanted dog house. Once you have all the supplies, tools, and plans, you can begin building your dog's house.

No matter what style you build, it needs to be elevated from the ground. Use some 2x4's to construct a base for the dog house and drill holes in the 2x4s to allow moisture to escape and to prevent rot. Once you have your base ready, you can begin building the basic framework. It is best to start with the floor and work your way up. The walls are easy to frame and the roof is simple, depending upon the style of house you have chosen to build. If you have extra insulation lying around, place it in the wall and frame it off. Your dog will chew on the insulation if he finds it, so caulk around the edges of the wall to seal it off.

Before you place the roof on the house, you need to see how easily it can be cleaned. Many dog owners are using hinged roofs because they can open the top and clean the inside of the dog's house easily. Hinged roofs work best on slanted dog houses, although they can be done on an A-frame dog house.

Once you place the roof, you will need to install the shingles. If you have tar paper, lay it first and install the tiles from the bottom up, overlapping each other slightly. When you reach the end, seal it off with wet/dry roof cement to prevent water from getting underneath and leaking.

You can now paint or stain your dog's house. Check the inside for nails or slivers that could cause your dog harm. Sand the doorway so that you and your dog don't get slivers. Use a waterproof paint or stain so it will withstand the elements.

Tips on Building a Dog House For Your Best Friend

If your best buddy spends a lot of time in the yard he needs a place of his own to hang out in. Building a dog house for your dog is a fun project for a beginner or an expert. It's big enough that you don't have to fiddle with bitty pieces and small enough that it's manageable. It's a project you can do alone or your kids can lend a hand with. The finished product will be used and greatly appreciated even if the corners don't come out exactly square and you use mismatched shingles. Dog will love it no matter what it looks like!

Build the Dog House to the Size of the Dog

It's tempting to build a house for the size of a Great Dane, but your Cocker Spaniel wont like it. Your dog is going to use the dog house for shelter, not a living room. He doesn't need or want a lot of space. A good rule of thumb is that it should be big enough for your full-grown dog to turn around and stretch out completely and small enough for his body heat to warm the space.

Vent the Dog House

Good airflow will keep your dog from getting too hot in warm weather. Your dog's breath will steam up the house in cold or damp weather and it needs to be able to escape so it doesn't help mold to grow. A flap over the door and vents in the roof work well creating a good updraft to pull out the moisture.

Keep Out the Weather

You want your dog house to keep your dog dry and warm in bad weather so be sure you have no leaks in the roof or holes in the walls that will let in rain or wind. Putting a flap over the door will also go a long way to keeping the inside of the house warm and dry. Building a dog house for your pet is a fun and rewarding project. Your dog will have shelter from the weather and you can be proud of building it yourself.

Homemade Dog House Building Guide

So, you've made the decision to try your hand at dog house building, but you're a bit unsure about the right way to go from here, right? Don't worry, it's a lot easier to build a great dog house than what you think! This article is a general guide to building a dog house.

Choose The Right Size

First things first, you need to decide on the size and design of your homemade dog house. You may think you already know how big it needs to be, but many people don't realise all the great options available.

There are 3 main designs:

- A medium dog house for small and mid-sized dogs, such as Dachshunds and Bull Terriers.

- A large, premium dog house for big dogs like German Shepherds and Golden Retrievers.

- A duplex dog house, so 2 or more of the little guys can sleep snuggled up together!

Even if you currently only have one small dog, consider building a kennel that is bigger than you require. You never know when you might get another dog!

Dog House Design Tips

If you really love your dog, there are a few small things you should do to ensure s/he is comfortable and happy inside her/his new home.

Here are a few tips:

- Make sure the floor is raised a few inches from the ground so ensure good air circulations. Dogs are particularly sensitive to heat.

- The floor should also be slanted slightly towards to door so that any water that might get in with quickly run out.

- Consider building an overhanging roof so that your dog is protected from strong winds and heavy rains.

- Build the roof with some hinges on the edges to make it easier to clean! Genius!

Some Secrets to Building a Dog Kennel With Dog Kennel Plans

I almost ended up in the dog house when I brought home an old stray dog that I just about hit when I was returning home from work one day. You should have seen the look on my wife's face when I showed her what I had found. She finally agreed that I could keep the dog providing that it would be kept outside at all times. I agreed and set about looking for dog kennel plans on the internet.

I was amazed at the number of plans and options that were available for building houses for dogs. After spending a lot of time going through my options I finally settled on some plans that looked easy to build and with very little cash outlay for materials.

One thing that you need to consider when building the dog house is the size of the dog itself. You want to make sure that the dog will have an ample amount of room to stand up when the dog is in the house. You also want to make sure that doorway is large enough for him it get in and out of.

Depending on where you live you want to make sure that the floor of the dog house remain dry at all times and that you install some sort of a door that easy for the dog to go through. This is especially true for unfavorable climate conditions.

Materials are another important consideration. Pressure treated wood is out for any part of the dog house that the dog may come in contact with. Make sure that these areas have materials that will not harm the dog if it is a dog that tends to chew everything in sight.

You may also want to consider fencing in a good size run for the dog so he can get some exercise if left for long periods of time.

Building a Small Backyard Chicken Coop - Things to Consider First

We probably all agree that there is nothing better than farm fresh eggs, not only in the morning but also as a great additional to everyday cooking and baking. With that being said, how far will you travel for your "farm fresh eggs"?

If you are reading this article then you have already given some thought to building a small backyard chicken coop of your very own so that you only have to walk right outside your door. But, like everyone you have a few questions before you jump in feet first. Good thinking! Let's explore some important factors in building a small backyard chicken coop.

Building your own coop can be a very rewarding adventure but let's talk about what to consider before you begin.

1. Ordinances. Check with your city first to make sure there is no ordinance against building a chicken coop in your neighborhood. This is a big one, there is nothing worse then going through the trouble of building a small backyard chicken coop and purchasing chickens only to find out....you can't have them.

2. Space. How much space is needed? How many chickens do you hope to house? How big does the structure have to be? This will be a big factor in your hen house plans. Make sure you consider this before getting your feet wet.

3. Where? Where will you build your chicken coop? Designate a place, consider how far from the house, and if you want a portable chicken coop?

4. Climate. Consider your climate. Are you going to need to insulate your chicken coop for cold nights and/or winter months? Or do you need to keep the coop cool during hot spells?

Now that you have explored some basic thoughts on chicken coop construction, let talk about what kinds of chickens you will be boarding.

5. Breed. What breed of chicken will you raise? Things to consider: what climate you live in; do you want your chickens to rear baby chicks? How often do you want your chickens to lay eggs? Do you prefer a colorful assortment of eggs?

6. Protection. How will you protect your precious egg supply and chickens from predators and/or dogs? No one wants to chase Fido around the yard while he has a chicken in his mouth.

7. Maintenance. How will you clean your chicken coop? A sloped floor a great solution to this problem, making it easy to spray down and clean up fast.

8. Ventilation. How will you ventilate your coop? Air circulation is a must. Not only for the health of the bird, but also for any odors that may come from the coop.

9. Feeding. How will you feed your chickens? You'll need to consider that you need easy access to feed and water your birds. Will this be an outside run? Will an outside run work in your climate?

10. Light. And finally, what is the light source? You will need to see inside your coop and give your chickens some natural light themselves.

Once you have answered the above concerns, you are now you are ready to begin building a small backyard chicken coop! Before you begin, check around your yard and see if there is any recycled material such as left over wood from old construction projects, or wooden pallets that can be used. If you already have an out building such as an old dog house, garage or barn on your property you maybe that much father ahead already (this can be a very money management way to build your coop.)

There you go, now what are you waiting for? Your very own "farm fresh egg" producing chicken coop is just around the corner. Most people are often surprised that chicken coops are very little maintenance and require very little supervision given the right housing. But you have done your homework and are on the right path.

Building a Secured Door For Your Dog House

The best way of taking care of your beloved dog doesn't only include giving your pet the right food and keeping its body clean. If you want your pet to stay outside your house and guard you house, you have to provide your pet a decent shelter to protect it against harsh weather like extreme heat, rain, or snow. Shelter for your dog outside your house means dog house.

Below is the list of the basic parts and features of a dog house you have to keep in mind.

1. Door - make a strong and sturdy door for your dog to give the pet the optimum weather protection and additional safety from other possible harsh elements outside its house. Your door should be easy to open and close for your dog.

A good door can cancel weather elements out, consider the structure the house and its door. A small door on the other hand enables elements of bad weather to get trapped inside easily and may cause dampness and will later accommodate molds and mildew in your dog's bed. This is not good for your dog's health as it can cause major allergies and other serious respiratory problems.

2. Foundation - this should be strong and sturdy too. You can use plastic material for your dog house door, plastic can withstand harsh weather longer than wood, it does not absorb moisture and is easier to clean and maintain.

You can also opt for a transparent plastic door, this enables your pet to see outside.

3. Extra comfort - before you actually build your dog house, consider the size of your dog, the house should not be too big nor too small for your pet. Dogs don't feel very comfortable if its house is too small, it can also be bad for your pet in hot weather.

Too big of a dog house, on the other hand, will not protect your pet from cold weather, as its body can not heat the shelter entirely and may cause health problems for your dog. You can provide blankets and mats inside for extra comfort.

Can a Steel Building Be Used As a Dog Kennel?

If you operate a dog kennel, you are probably wondering if you can utilize a steel building in order to expand the business. The truth is that you can. Many businesses that house dogs are using steel buildings to ensure that the dogs are in a warm and secure place. It is very important that the dogs are as comfortable as possible, which is crucial to the operation of the kennel. It is also important that the quarters stay clean so that the dogs stay healthy.

By providing a healthy environment for the dogs, they will be less distraught that their owner has had to leave them there. Many owners must leave their dogs at kennels while they are on vacation or are traveling on business. As a result, dogs can become upset, but having a nice kennel will keep the dog's stress level to a minimum.

As a kennel

When being used as a kennel, the steel building must be insulated. This is so that the dogs do not become too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer. Air conditioning, heat pumps, electricity, phone lines, and even plumbing can be installed. This is one reason why the steel building has become a very important structure to many businesses and even homeowners. They are durable, so they stand up to many different weather phenomenons. Once insulated, temperature control does not become an issue at all.

What's most important is that the dogs are protected and they can be secured. Installing an alarm system is easy to do to ensure that no one will break in and steal or harm the dogs. Also important to dog safety is the cleanliness of the steel building. The ease of cleaning these structures is also a fantastic feature that really makes them sell.

It doesn't matter if the cleaning has to be completed on the inside or the outside. When being used as a dog kennel, dogs may make a mess. Fortunately, there are no wooden floors or other type of flooring that is hard to clean. Concrete floors can be laid out to ensure easy cleaning. Even the walls can be easy to clean. They usually just need to be wiped or hosed down. As far as the exterior goes, a water hose can usually do the job and the steel building will look nice when the process is finished. As a matter of fact, a steel building can look just like new for the life of the building, which is a pretty long life.

Space issues

Fortunately, the affordability of the steel building means that more buildings can be acquired if the space is needed. There are plenty of dog kennels that use multiple buildings on the premises or the kennel owners will combine several buildings together. This means that they will place them side-by-side, and create doorways that go from building-to-building. This is a method similar to what is used at craft fairs and county fairs. Multiple steel buildings are pushed together with doorways going from one to the other. By doing this with a dog kennel, all of the dogs can be attended to even easier.

So now you know how convenient it is to use a steel building as a dog kennel. They are very useful and really take away the need to use any other type of structure. The idea is to keep the dogs safe, comfortable, and clean. It is also a plus that the cleaning is a lot easier on you, allowing you the time to take care of those other duties that really matter.
