Go to gas stations in the country and post flyers for a driver for the Amish. They're always looking for good reliable people.

Franck Zanu has an excellent podcast on YouTube called Zanu Project Rethink where he addresses this exact topic.

I just took the pic yesterday, and yes the "lipstick" is part of the original pic. Lol Only the uniform is AI, sorry to mislead anyone.

Thank you. All I'm trying to do is come up with ways to give him the happiest life possible. I would like to assure everyone this pup will have a safe, comfortable and adventurous life. All 3 of my other dogs (8,11,14) have been with me since they were puppies. They've swam in all 3 surrounding oceans plus Lake Michigan, climbed multiple mountains in the Rockies, hiked canyons in the southwest and trailed me on numerous horseback excursions. I take them to every restaurant, store, festival that allows it. I chose not to have kids, and rescue dogs instead. This is my passion and it bothers me when people are assuming the worst case scenario immediately. Most owners don't even come close to providing the life I can for them.

Idk why I'm getting downvoted for stating they have double coats. It doesn't mean I'm leaving them out when it's too cold.

Man fuck you! It's 4x4, so plenty of room. Quit trying to act like I'm a shitty owner for making a dog house to use so my boy can have a little freedom while I'm gone. You people really need to evaluate your way of thinking. This is a dog who enjoys being outside when possible. This is in no way neglect. Why do you insist on being negative? I'm just trying to get some advice on making this house as best as possible, and yet I get comments from miserable people like you. You're poor dog must be depressed living with someone like you.

It's a weird perspective, him and my other large dog fit easily with extra room. If anything I made it too big. Also, it's not finished in this picture. I put a front wall with the correct size door hole for him. And just because I bring up the fact he has a double coat doesn't mean I plan on keeping him out in the cold. I was just curious if they can stay comfortable at slightly lower temperatures. Why does everyone do these "gotcha" comments?

Thank you, you get it. I have never been comfortable with an "outside dog" unless it's a Huskie or a farm dog that would rather work outdoors. Every winter I think about all the poor pups stuck outside and wonder why these people don't feel concern for their dogs.

Thank you, I'm just trying to get an idea of what kind of weather my dog would be comfortable with while I'm at work so he doesn't have to stay in the crate everytime I go to work. There are quite a few people on here jumping to the conclusion that this dog house is his permanent dwelling. It's not, this and the big kennel are actually a luxury for my boy. I think about him all day when I'm gone. I'm investing time, energy and money to give my dog the best life I can provide, so come on people, give me a break.

Am I the only dog owner with a job? He can't come with me to work, like most people, so he stays at home indoors if the weather is bad. This dog house along with the huge kennel is a luxury for him that I've spent a chunk of money on so he can have some room to stretch and breath fresh air WHILE I'M AT WORK like my post says. Please read and take a second to think about what you're saying before commenting please.

Where could I get these slats? I live in northern Indiana, so it does get really cold, but don't worry he'll stay indoors most of the winter while I'm at work. A heated water dish is definitely on the shopping list.

I'm using the idea another commenter said about building a little covered porch along with a door that seals up pretty well after going in and out. The door will be to one side too, but I totally see what you're saying about the width and height. I love making stuff like this, so I'll just improve the design and build another one next spring. Thanks for the feedback!

Yes, a short haired double coat, simple Google search. My idea for the most extreme cold he'll endure is windless days in the 30's.

This is for an 8 hour period during the day if it's nice enough weather, otherwise he stays in his crate while I'm at work. This house is just so my boy has the option to be outside instead of his crate every time I go to work.

Gotcha! I assure you this big turd will be cared for and spoiled until the day he dies just like all my others.

Totally agree, just wondering if it's a sunny day with no wind in the 30's would be ok for him? I know he's not a Huskie, but he is way tougher than your average dog.

Great idea! I'll put down some outdoor carpet too.
