Duplex Dog Houses Versus Single Houses for Multiple Dogs

If you have two dogs, then you have one big
decision to make: Do you build one dog house for
the two of them or let them each have their own
home? There are many reasons why people choose
one or the other, and you will have to figure
out for yourself which direction is best for you
and both of your pets. Here are a few things to
keep in mind when deciding among duplex dog
houses versus single houses for multiple dogs.

The first priority must be the safety of your
pet. If they don't get along and fight all the
time, then having them sleep in the same
quarters is not a bright idea. It is well worth
the extra expense of buying two homes if keeping
them apart will keep them happier.

If you are short on space, then it might be
worth building just one duplex for your two
doggies. You can either build a large one with
one room or a duplex, which features two
separate rooms and entrances. You might find
that each dog decides on their own which is
"their room," or they may change back and forth
depending on who gets to the door first.

If you are trying to buy a duplex dog house in a
store, you will probably have a tough time since
there just aren't a lot of them around. But if
you are planning on building a home anyway, then
you will find that there are a lot of plans
available. Whether you choose to build it
yourself or have someone who is more skilled
follow the plans, it is fun to customize dog
houses after they are built.

When you have one large dog house, whether it is
a duplex or not, they can be difficult to move,
so you have to make sure you have it in the
right place when you first get it. If you are
building it, you might actually want to build it
in place, much like you would a real house. This
will help you to make sure that you have it in
the right position (i.e. out of the sun and on a
flat surface) and that you won't have to move it
again.

Building any home can be a big project, but
building a duplex is much bigger. You will have
to deal with an internal wall, two entrances,
and more windows than you would with a normal
dog house. In addition, because there will be
two animals in there, it should be built
substantially stronger than a dog house for one.

If you think that your two dogs can get along
and live in the same house, whether it is in
separate rooms or in one big one, creating a dog
house for both of them can be a lot of fun.
People will really be amazed when they see your
duplex dog house.

Are you a 2 dog family? If you need to replace
your old dog houses or need a new one then you
may want to consider a duplex dog house instead
of 2 separate homes. http://www.doowaggle.com
