The white window/door frames and vents let it down. Maybe dark brown or black to match the stain around the base.

It's insane that people go through such lengths for heir furry mutts. White people will get replaced and at this point it's deserved.

For me, it's the overpriced manufactured pet door that could have so easily been custom built. This is performance art.

i made a kennel for a whole litter of stray pups this year it was just a cuboid stick frame and you put a piece of tarp over it

thinking about building a new dog house for my bros. I live in texas though it gets brutal in the summer. I was thinking of putting a little tiny window AC unit in it and insulating the shit out of it. Make it nice and cool on the inside. I would only have it run from sun-up to when I got home.

Maybe for someone with skills and tools, but I wanted it to be insulated, so the commercial option was easier

Maybe a little. The roof section weighs around 200lbs, so that joint is bearing a lot of weight when the roof is raised

Oh and you should probably make sure none of those exotic woods are going to cause respiratory problems for your dogs, you seem retarded so a cautious approach might be warranted here.

Here's my thinking:
1. Shitloads of people own dogs
2. Shitloads of rich people own dogs
3. Many women are just CWAZY about their little furball and would do/ buy anything for it
Somewhere out there is a crazy bitch who will see this and want it. I hope. It's gonna have a scary price tag

The proper declension is "in cane" (pronounced "in ca-neh").

It is insane and I love it.

I suggest that you include an offer to replace the brass name plates to whatever the buyer wants- no extra charge.

Quite honestly I think this looks awful but I admire the dedication. I'm sure you'll find someone just as whacky as you to buy it.
