Most of us dog lovers never thought of our dogs as pets but as beloved members of the family. They deserve the best that we can offer. What do dogs need? They need proper food, sufficient playtime, and most of all–space of their own.
We share our space with dogs so often that we tend to forget that they need their own space too. We see them romp around with their favorite toy in the backyard or playing with kids in the living room. Sometimes we overlook the fact that they also need a place to call their own.
If your home is large enough, give them an entire room to play and rest. If your home is small, give them a divided part of a room — but always give them space. Dogs need their own private enclaves. If you designate a place that their needs such as cleaning, bathing, and pampering will be met, your furry buddies will feel loved and appreciated.
The dog room samples shown below should provide you with ample ideas on how to create the canine domains. Some dog rooms can also be used as mud rooms. Some have shelves or cabinets for your best friends’ storage needs. Some have feeding stations. Choose the one that best suits your need. If you have the time and money, you may create a dog room that has everything–bed, bath, feeding station, cabinet, and play space while your living area will be mess free.
Each one of the dog room ideas presented here is designed as DIY project which can be made with standard craft materials. You don’t need an expensive interior decorator to design a dog room, just time and a little imagination. There are a variety of colors and styles too choose from ranging from black and white to colorful patterns.
What do you get from all this? When your dogs feel loved, they will provide you with heartfelt love and unending loyalty in return. Happy dogs will make dog owners happy too. When all members of your family are happy, what more can you ask for?
