This charming little red dog house was made for a dog up to about 15 pounds in size, but this Etsy vender can customize it to almost any size you would like. The floor is constructed of cedar wood to help make it rot resistant and the remainder is constructed with pressure treated pine, using weatherproofing, poly and a copper cap on the roof to help deter any water leaks.  It can also be painted in any primary color you would like.

Talk about a room with a view! This Boomer & George dog house has it all, including its own staircase that leads up to your pups own personal rooftop balcony. So your pooch will be able to sun himself up top, while having a bird’s eye view of the world, and then retreat downstairs when he’s ready to grab some shade for his afternoon nap.
