Doggie Homes (DIY): Barkitecture for Your Best Friend

Bow WOW! Man’s best friend deserves a home of his own. Build one good enough to prove to your puppy that being in the doghouse can be a wonderful thing. The experts on the Barkitecture series have two dozen fabulous options, plus lots of advice on choosing the best one for your particular dog. They ask the smart questions, so owners can do right by their pet: How large is the animal? Does it stay indoors or out? Does the doghouse need to provide protection from extreme heat, cold, rain, or snow? And the styles are smashing, including a rustic log cabin, exotic pagoda, or adorable tent. Each project appears in color, with meticulous instructions, how-to photos, and tips on customizing the designs.

Matthew Klarich and Jeff Woods are in their second season of designing fun, one-of-a-kind dog houses for DIY Network’s Barkitecture show. They both serve as producers of the show.
