This is fabulous! Very nice! - I am hoping to mud-proof a hilly area for 2 very mud-loving dogs. I know it won't turn out nearly this nice, but I appreciate your video which gives me some information to start planning from. Thank-You!

Nice work, well done and love the ending that includes what it was designed for… the four legged kiddos🙂

I just installed mine without any grid mat as i want to make sure the pet waste goes straight down to the soil which means no weed fabric as weed fabric can absorb pet waste. I used a 2 inch thick plastic grid filled deodorized pet infill and gravel straight over the pounded down soil and since it is a grid it should keep shape and i stapled the turf straight down to a wood frame

I have watched this video so many times for inspiration. I plan to also build the steps from your blog because my dog door is two feet from the ground. I would like to know where I can purchase the dog house you built or the plan or something similar? I love the look and colors and it will pair nicely with my back yard decor. I am also in the PNW. I am in Twin Lakes.

Love this idea... had watched a few diy videos and etc. but this is bar-none the BEST idea I have seen.... yes, I'd hire you guys, too!! Can you answer 2 questions. 1) what size area did you use for this and 2) is it connected to your house (how do the dogs gain entry?) Please and thank you...live this!!!!

[@TheCreatedHome]

Thank you! The yard is over 500 square feet. The door you see in the video is into our garage. I hope that helps!

[@stephaniemoreno4145]

Can you do mine? lol this is so pretty

[@Weeone5207]

1) love your whole idea.
2) looking to do something similar for my 2 pups... approximately what is the size of your yard and how much did the synthetic yard cost?
3) LOVE your doghouse... your video said you might be building and selling them.. awesome. Might want to add 2 in my yard/run/dog play area...what is the price/sizes...please and thank you... GREAT idea and beautiful completion!!!❤❤❤

[@TheCreatedHome]

It's a bit north of 500 square feet. The cost really depends on how much you are doing yourself and who you source the materials from. As to the dog houses, I am in limbo on that one for various reasons. But we'll see! Thank you!

Where did you purchase the drain mat? Having trouble finding it online.

[@VirtuousYoungLady1]

What would you charge to do mine using cedar shavings instead of pea gravel?

[@lisalove9836]

What did you use for the dog potty area?

[@CarseninHD]

3:07 - what software did you use to design the yard?

[@TheCreatedHome]

I used SketchUp.

[@jasminevargas5838]

Love the dog yard! What website/app did you use to create your visual planning 1:02?

[@TheCreatedHome]

Thank you! I used SketchUp.
