INSPIRATION - "Indoor" Homes for Dogs

Well, Hell, if they can make birdhouses for inside, why not dog houses?

Making this stuff is fine. And, you could probably hit up the manufacturer for a couple of tents maybe - that or make your own. But, I wouldn't buy any of it - I couldn't afford it. Have you checked the prieces they're asking for all the dog houses I posted as inspiration? And, asking is the operational word, I would imagine they aren't selling real fast. One was priced at $5,000 - and it wasn't that fancy, I figure the average 14 yo kid could dupe one pretty easily, and it would probably look about as good.

I can't afford them either but I'de like to have one just for grins cuz they're cute - a conversation thing. I wonder what the sporting goods stores do with last years models? Hell, if I put either of mine in one of them they're rip it to shreds probably. My dogs are my buddies but I'll be damned of they'll have a $5k house. Ours sleep inside on the bed and when outside have a nice small recycled plastic home with a thick blanket inside and a carpet doorstep. Its under a covered patio and enclosed on 3 sides. They've never complained!! John
