Homade dog boxes and Houses

[waylon]

I would like to see your homade dog boxes and houses.


This is an old Chem. tote that held alcohol for oil field use. It cost me nothing I removed the round lid hung a heat lamp in it and covered it with some old tin i had. The heat lamp automaticly comes on if the temp drops below 36 degrees.I use horse hanging buckets for food and water, easy to clean and LAST

I know every one has seen barrel dog houses , I stuff mine with straw and only cut out a large u out bend the remainder up to about a 45 degree angle it keeps rain and snow out plus my dogs like it better than a barrel that lay's down and dogs naturally curl when they lie down anyway





This is my old hand me down dog box. I traded a hay spike for it removed the covering and replaced it with metal left over when i roofed my house, I put plywood with small holes in the door and left the back pretty open but have a piece that covers it, it gets warm here in a hurry so your box has gotta breath good. The frame was built by a friend in 1979 and it works like a $500.00 box just not as pretty
