Building a HEATED DOG HOUSE for Canadian Winters

  • In this video I build an entire dog house from scratch, complete with a heated floor to keep my dog warm in the winter. A step-by-step, detailed build making a fully insulated tiny house that can handle all weather. This luxury dog house looks modern and has lighting feature that makes it look like a real mansion. I show you framing, electrical and in-floor heat, insulation, siding, cedar siding, roofing, trim and we try it out to see how it handles the cold temperatures.
    I make money from the ads in the video and reinvest most of it to make better builds and content! So I'd appreciate it if you turn off your ad-blocker or pay the small fee for RUclips premium so the the creators you watch get paid 🙂

      Nah, dogs are pack animals, and prefer to be with their family/pack.
      If Bailey is relegated to the outdoors, I feel very sad for him/her. They are social creatures, therefore he/she is probably lonely. They'll adapt, and it'll seem like they are happy, but given the choice, dogs want to be with their people, at all times. They'll take what you give, but if it's up to them, they'll be by your side.
      I'd say to get another dog to keep Bailey company, but don't want another dog living outside, away from its family.
      Ten degrees is AWFUL. My 6 dogs are all cuddled up on the couch under blankets, waiting for bed time, where they will get in my bed, along with my 6 cats, and I live in Phoenix. My tortoise is in his cage, door open, on his warmer. Tomorrow afternoon, he'll go out the dog door to sunbathe a bit before he grazes on grass until sunset when he comes back in the house, has a snack, then heads to his cage to get on top of his warmer, for the night.
      Builder dude, do better. Don't have animals, if you don't want them in the house, and part of your life.

People value their THINGS more than their loyal dogs who would protect them until their dying breath. Do they shed in the house? You betcha. Get a roomba. Figure it out. Better yet, don't get a dog if you can't love it enough to honor it as a valued member of your pack. The guy didn't even allow Bailey in his workshop when he was building it.

    Brilliant job. My only suggestion would have been to make the roof structure hinged so you can literally lift it up and do things inside the house without having to crawl in. Cleaning it out, replacing dog bedding, checking on the dog if he is immobile, all made much easier if you can just pop the lid and look inside, and there's no reason you can't do that even with a nice solid roof. You might want to add hydraulic lifters to make it easier, particularly in Winter, but that would only cause a minor budgetary increase for a tremendous amount of ease of future operation.

      Agreed, I was slightly worried that the house - and the entrance - were a bit on the small side. Bailey's quite a big girl, and it was noticeable she had to crouch to get through the doorway. God forbid she were ever taken ill or collapsed inside the dog house - it would be a struggle to get her out through that doorway. I agree, a hinged roof (or even wall) would allow fast/easy access to the interior for cleaning or anything else, when needed.

    Just a couple water ceiling tips.
    After cutting the plywood barn siding it's a good idea to paint the cut edges especially the ones going toward the bottom. That siding will rot out and break down pretty fast compared to other wood
    When doing the fascia flashing and you're not able to bend it around a corner and you do a lap. Which yours looked really good. It's a good idea to put butyl or mastic or even some double-sided foam tape in the lap. The silicone on the surface will eventually lose adhesion and water will find its way in there. Especially with freeze and thaw.

    As a retired cabinetmaker I rarely watch DIY videos like this. Usually it's someone who sticks their face, full frame, in the camera and pretends to be a pro. However, being a dog lover I was intriqued and I really like your design. With a few nicer tools, a tablesaw, oscillating saw and mitersaw station for repeat cuts, you could increase your production and quality. And...... the 3D printed extension for the window..... WOW. Seriously nice touch. Keep at it, you are definitely smart and have the desire to build. Congrats on a beatiful "Casa de perro."

    Roofing tip: 25:22
    The first stagger on the starter shingle should be 6-8 inches as well. I know there’s drip edge along the side, but there should still be an overhang with a starter shingle. It looks crisp. Lastly the nails go on the lower white line of the shingles rather the the higher one. The lower white line is the double layered part of the shingle so your shingles don’t fly away.
