Dog lodges are variants of a closed type, with a roof, walls and a small opening-entrance. Such houses can be installed both in the apartment and outside it. Dogs love houses for the opportunity to retire and hide from the attention of the hosts and guests of the house.
Houses for dogs in the apartment
In apartments most often used soft houses for dogs made of fabric and foam rubber, made of natural materials that do not cause allergies in pets. Such houses can have the most diverse form. Most often, these houses are purchased for small dogs, such as toy terriers , chihuahua, spitz . These dogs are comfortable enough to be located inside the house, moreover, equipped with insulated walls, the lounger will warm even a dog with a short coat. For larger breeds, buying a house for dogs in an apartment can be impractical, because, firstly, it will be large enough and cumbersome, and secondly, the cost of such a house is much higher than the miniature options.

If we talk about other types of such beds, then we should pay attention to the house-tent for the dog. These couches are warm, as they are supplied with a special gasket, besides they are soft, which allows the dog to comfortably fit inside. We also note the habitual form of this house and its attractive appearance.

There are also houses for a dog made of cardboard. Initially, they have a beautiful appearance, but the dog, especially the middle or large, can easily break the walls and roof of such a couch, so this shelter is suitable only for small dogs.

Dog houses on the street
If you keep a dog on the street, then it needs a more solid dwelling. In addition, it must withstand the various vagaries of the weather and be adapted to different seasons, and hence, to different temperatures of the air. Perhaps the most appropriate option is to purchase a ready-made or self-constructed house for a dog made of wood. The roof can also be made of wood or made of slate. The wooden booth is convenient, as it is strong enough, withstands the rains, and also warm in the frost and does not heat up very much in the heat.

A plastic house for dogs can also be used outdoors, but only for a short time, as a temporary shelter, before purchasing or equipping a solid permanent booth. Plastic has the property of rapidly heating, so the dog is unlikely to lie inside such a house on a hot day, and in winter this material will not be too convenient. The only thing from which the plastic house can reliably protect the dog is a variety of atmospheric precipitation and wind.

If there is a need to arrange an enclosure, a house cage for a dog, then it is possible to build a solid and permanent box made of bricks. Usually, such cages are used when keeping large breeds of dogs. The enclosure is a part of the infield area fenced with a metal mesh, in which there is a house, dog feeders. The enclosure is supplied with a secure wicket door. The dog is placed in the enclosure if it is necessary to isolate it, for example, when guests come to you, and can move freely within the enclosed space.
