Just like people, dogs need a safe and comfortable space for a healthy and happy life.
Luckily, there are plenty of ways we can provide them with this. And most of them can be found on the subreddit 'Barkitecture' — members of this online community regularly post pictures of custom dog houses that are the epitome of modern pet living.
Whether we're talking about functional staircases or comfy beds, the residents of these units must be barking about their features to the whole neighborhood!

Spent Some Social Distancing Time Building Rufio A Mansion
Their Own Little Balcony
This is broken bones waiting to happen; you CANNOT expect a terrier to stay behind such a tiny railing if they see something they want to go after. They've got big dog protective instincts, and once they're focused in on something it's d*** the consequences!
Chicago Fire Dept Engine 115 Has This Doghouse. Originally Built For Bear (R.I.P.), It Is Now Frequented By Good Boy Jax When He Hangs Around Outside
Aww, RIP Bear. I'm sure he was much loved; I'm glad Jax is now there to help fill the void (and the house).
I Made A Two Story Dog House For My Mastiff. I Haven’t Even Painted Yet And She Loves It
Built This About 6 Years Ago For Our Dogs. Made From Logs On Our Land, 4 Feet Wide, 7 Feet Long And A Small Heat Lamp For The Winter
There are dogs who would refuse to go into your nice heated house and prefer to stay outside even in the cold. I don't know their correct name but the breed is made for herding and protect their sheeps or goats on their own. They have thick fur and also a thick undercoat that protects them from the cold.
Custom Doghome
Practical, well finished, and good looking. This one should be much higher up the list.
