How I built this BIG dog house.

- As a beginner woodworker this was my first doghouse project! My brother asked me to build him a BIG doghouse and so I did. I used the trial version of Sketch Up to design this before building it and it took almost 30 hours to finish this. Any constructive criticism is welcome as I am always looking to learn something. Thank You for watching!
My inspiration for this dog house was by Colin Furze

I’m a contractor and believe me that is very nice work and attention to detail.
Angel. Escalante I really did try my best building this. I appreciate this much. Thank you!
Hell yeah dude. True craftsman
This is glorious, been searching for "best material for dog house" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Ganyan Canicholas Formula - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my m8 got cool results with it.

I wanted to see the dogs reaction to the new house.
this is what i love to see. people being inspired by watching youtube videos then going out and building away...i love it! and hope everyone does the same after watching videos like this... :-)
dreamkiss4u This was Awesome. Thank you much!!
Wow, you should build these and sell them, many people would pay top dollar for this house. Awesome job man!!!!!
Thank you sir. Currently working on a plan to do this a lot more often!
I would definitely buy one!!
I'd buy.
Iiiiiiii well pay 333$ok
David Low I don’t even think that’ll cover all the material he used. Not even labor.
Wow, that's really impressive. I'd live in that house
Riv & Reb Thank you

Winner of a video, I been tryin to find out about "dog houses to build" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Ganyan Canicholas Formula - (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some great things about it and my co-worker got excellent results with it.
I've been a woodworker for years and I have to give you a major compliment on your work. Damn fine job! Good planning, good specs and you've done an excellent job with the tools that you had available. Inspiring! Congrats!
registrum Thank you! I appreciate your time and enjoyed your comment. I keep building my tool collection everyday!
You’ve got crazy skills and I’d consider this professionally built. All of the detail and attention to even the smallest of things made the outcome incredible! I would love to have a house like this for my fur baby.
Marsheal Smith thank You so much! I appreciate this!
This is brilliant! You've inspired be to make my own for my big dog. Thank you :)
Taren Burns-Hutchison Awesome. Thank you!
If that was my first project i´d consider myself a professional. That is amazing.
You are the MAN!! I love it!! Thank you.
Kenneth N. Amend Awesome. Thank you much!
You did a fantastic job building the dog house and came up with clever solutions such as flattening the roof edge. I recently started a new job as a construction crew lead of new homes. My previous experience has mostly been in building maintenance and renovation. I had to learn new tasks quickly and I turned to UA-cam a lot. It has been a life saver. I am always prepared to lead my volunteer groups and even teach the older guys new tricks. Going from a bare lot to a lived in home is an amazing feeling and feat. So kudos man on finishing your first big project and I hope it leads to many more in the future because you have a talent for this work.
Victoria Greenwood Thank you very much Victoria. Like you I am now moving into building maintenance and since building this Dog house have started my own small construction company. Thank you for the good comment and I hope to keep moving up as you did!
Well done. It makes me smile to see somebody enjoy a project like that.
Hey man, those lap joints don't look half bad! Nice build, thanks for sharing your process. Cheers!
Michael Cohen Thank you much. I appreciate it! 😀
Absolutely amazing I love building things like this and we bought a really cheap dog house for our dog and I insulated the inside and the deck was real cheap and I got planks and build a bigger deck for him with planks. He hates it and super afraid to go inside.
That was very therapeutic to watch.
Lucky dog. I can imagine it now, hanging out inside that awesome doghouse on a rainy day.
Dude the fact you can disassemble the house was badass
Another great video Emit, I'm at the Firehouse right now and had the pleasure of watching your work! Keep up the videos, you are a very good teacher. P.S. Your helper is AWESOME!
Paul Ricalde Thank you again. I get my inspiration from you. You're a great teacher. I've learned and still learn so much from your channel. God Bless You.
🔝Nice Dog🐕Home🏡Bro😎
You did a BEAUTIFUL job! I admire your talent.
Thank You Arleen :)
I can officially say, after building my husky his very own large dog house, I can say, this is a lot of work! Lots of bending down and being creative as you go because you have so many obstacles that happen. I built MINE out of pallets and ended up doing a angled, flat roof instead.
Your end video of taking it apart was an excellent idea because you have to remember, it’s going to be VERY VERY heavy so building it at the area , WHERE the house will be AT, is best. which is what I did, but no way I’m ever moving it lol. Good work 👍👍👍
You don’t have all the fancy tools and woodwork terminology but for me I could understand and learn from you more because of it. On top of that you really inspired me to thinking I can also do this. Thank you.
Don’t normally comment on videos BUT this BUILD was awesome. Great job overall
Thank You much
Dog house??? Heck man, that's as good as a play house. LOL. great job. I am thinking of making one for my kids.
Thank You
How adorable is that kid walking around 😍
Well they say everything is bigger in Texas!
Awesome. Doing research definitely comes in handy. I love building & woodworking, and watching others.
So much fun & endless possibilities... with the right tools.
Awesome video! Awesome job!!
Also, your attitude about it is what I love most, no showboating or anything. Fan-frigging-tastic!!
Comments like these make me wish I would continue woodworking. This made my day. 😊 🙏🏼
I love this! You've inspired me to build for the first time.
Do you happen to have a list of supplies and material you bought for this? Not knowing what I'm looking for at a hardware store is my nightmare
Good job man, I’m gonna give it a go....
Wow so glad i found your video, i feel ready now to build mine now. My husband does not have time and watching your video gave me hope. Love love the step by step details. Your dog house looks incredible gorgeous for being a first timer. It’s marvelous. Great job.
Love this idea.
I can't even cut paper in a straight line... my dog will continue to enjoy indoor privileges lol.
5th Element Entertainment this made me laugh
Emit Salazar lol you're welcome
🔝Nice Dog🐕Home🏡Bro😎
Woah!!! This guy is a friend of mine and I had know clue he was such a great craftsman! Great work and hats off to my bro Emit!!!!
Zedric Thomas Thanks bro!!
I’m gonna watch this video over and over until I can build some like this to sell as a career. Struggling with employment, thank you for this video. I’m going for it !
Great job, you Sr. inspire me to make a beautiful dog house for my dos Labradors.
Thanks

Only a couple small things I would have changed. One is the window. You mentioned one of the minor things with the way that the joints lapped (this is really minor though). The other thing I would have done is to put the plexiglass inside of the frame (centered) and made a slight down-slope on the sill plate. Much the same way a normal window is constructed; it would help with keeping water out. The other thing that I would have changed is longer screws for the 2x but joints, 3.5 instead of 2.5 ....
I've been building crap for nearly 35 years and I can say that your construction methods were spot on and you did a great job. I would even say that this is over built but that's not a bad thing, especially with a structure that can be broken down into parts. Stronger construction is a good thing in parts that can potentially be moved around.
Ian Ide Great feedback! Thank you. The first plan was actually to center the plexiglass like you mentioned but make it removable being weather proof still. (Place the glass on the inside piece and pull it to the inside to allow air flow on cooler days) I couldn't figure out a way to be able to keep a good seal when it was in place so I just made it one complete unit. I actually did tilt the window to the outside a little to allow the water to drain because like you mentioned, I didn't want water to collect against the glass. I plan on doing some minor upgrades later on. It means a lot to have experienced carpenters say this was good. Thank you much!!!
Tilting the entire window frame is very good solution in this situation; that would definitely keep all the water out. Understand my original thoughts come from the idea of pleasing the customer and the thought of tilting a window wouldn't have entered my mind. Just try that at a home-owners house "um ya I'm just going to tilt this window" heh.... Very cool idea though, and if you are satisfied with it aesthetically, the chances are that no one else will even notice.
Ian Ide I completely understand. If I remember correctly I think it was 1/8th or 2/8th inch tilt from a being level. Next build I'm going to have to do my research and learn how to do it correctly. Any videos you recommend?
I haven't really looked around for videos that explain how to build a window. What little that I have seen all show conventional window construction and placement into a standard opening. There are several factors that you can keep in mind though.
Make the sill angle about 10°-14°, cut this piece custom to fit nicely.
You can add a 1/8" deep slot on the window casement to positively locate the glass; it's not necessary but it helps during construction. You can caulk directly onto the edges of the glass, into the slot, and it will be water tight. Trim against the glass as desired but keep in mind that uncaulked trim is just a spot for water to set. Notice that I said "set" not leak. This used to be handled by window Glazing (another semi-obsolete practice).
Window design is a bit of an art, and to avoid dry rot from resting water, places for water to run off should be built in. Today's standard vinyl casement window has actual holes built in that allow water to run out of the bottom front (of course this a completely different window) but you'll want to develop a similar mindset.
When trimming the outside against the siding all trim is water tight except for the bottom piece where in comes in contact with the side trim. In fact you can create a natural water channel by making the bottom trim the short piece.
So the top piece of trim is long, the left and right but up to the top. Top, left, and right are caulked water tight at this point. The left and right are also long and the bottom trim fits between them. Only caulk the bottom trim water tight where it comes into contact with the window casement. Put the trim on all together, no need to wait for the previous caulking to dry, but do not caulk the seems between the left/right and bottom trim. It is impossible to make it all 100% water tight (without extreme measures) and this seemingly minor detail gives water a place to go (down and outside) instead of resting.
You can even make the bottom trim a tiny bit short, perhaps 1/8" and split the gap on each side 1/16", no one will see it from 5' away. You might even consider cutting a slight 5° angle at the top facing surface of the bottom piece of trim. Hopefully I didn't carry on to much and this makes sense. This all might sound like overkill for a simple window but a few simple steps will make a good long lasting window that keeps the outside out.
Ian Ide This was great! Thank you for this information!
I love your little helper 1:12 In his own world.... :)
American Patriot Thank you!! My little man wants to be with daddy all the time! I love it. I put some oldies country on in those ear muffs and he was just enjoying himself.
Emit, I have to give you credit. That build is great. I love how you problem solved the roof particularly.
Thank you man!
Awesome video Emit! I don't know how to use powered tools (Ive only ever used a drill). It was really helpful that you included the clips of how you were using them on the siding, and 2X4's. Thanks for taking the time to explain all the small details. Those get forgotten or overlooked.
"Beginner woodworker", if you would not have said it I would not have been able to tell. Great house.
Thank you. I am familiar with tools and basic cuts but things like lap joints and other wood cuts are new to me. I was actually more excited to try them than anything lol

Amazing dog house! I’m beginning to build my own. Are there any ac/heaters you recommend for installation?
Thank You much! The AC wont be installed on this one till the summer but for the moment we used this one off of Amazon. www.amazon.com/Holmes-Blade-Window-Touch-Thermostat/dp/B000065DK8/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1512691903&sr=8-3&keywords=dual+cooling+window+fan
Thank you for the detailed tutorial! I found a dog that I do t think will ever want to be an inside dog. She’s big so I want a big house and enough room for a buddy! ❤
WOW! WOW! WOW! IMPRESSIVE AND PURE DEDICATION.
Wa We Thank you. ☺☺☺☺☺
you did a great job on that
Thank you very much!
Hello Emit, sorry to bother you I know you're very busy, but I was wondering if I could get the blueprints/measurements? I'm going to try and make this house for my sister as gift for her German Shepherd. This is by far the best dog house I've seen . Thanks man!
Joseph Xavier same I need it for my English mastiffs
Did he ever send it to you. I get no reply when I asked for the plans.
I want the blueprints too!
Yeah me too
I was hoping he had posted the blueprints. :( He did an amazing job!
Great, it gave me a tremendous idea to build a house for my dogs, thanks.
All I can say is GREAT JOB!!👍👍👍
Your baby is so cute
Soumyadip Das Thank You! He loves doing anything I do.
Awesome job. Looking forward to building one for my pup.
For a rookie, you built a really nice dog house. I know guys will years of experience building homes none of them have ever had the pride that you have shown through this video.
Looks very professional.
Thank You Shane. This made my night!
@@RenegadeB1ker you are welcome. You have a great natural talent including attention to detail.
You should’ve show how you’ve done the roof 😭 you did awesome tho
Hey Emit I live in Houston I am wondering if you have a supply list and measurements yet?
yes
A lot of dedication and detail. Gave me some ideas. Thanks.
A good model for building a tiny house! Good job!
Can you make one for me? I have a great Pyranees currently living in my basement. I was just wondering if you make one how much it cost
Any blueprints yet I wanted try build it for my dog
10/10 for being able to take it part and moving such a big house
Great job...love the attention to detail you put into it and the idea of making it easy to disasemble and move to back yard. Way to think ahead.
Connie Rutherford Thank you very much. That is what actually took the longest, figuring out how to disassemble and still make it very sturdy.
Wow, that's an amazing dog house. Where is the dog? Maybe you have him in a different video?
The dog is my brothers and was inside/backyard during the build process. When the house was finished it was to dark to get video but he warmed up to it quick! : )
Emit Salazar I’m local and by chance do you still build these?
Hi Emit, could you tell me the dimensions of this exact dog house?
A beautiful dog house. So glad you installed a fan for cross breeze ventilation. All others I've seen didn't install one. Excellent job.
Thank you much!
I love how detailed your video is and how talented you are!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Do you have the plans & measurements so I can build this dog house too?
I do
Emit Salazar May you give them to us?
Emit Salazar I recently got a husky and I love this house
As others have stated, that is an awesome job! You should definitely be proud of what you accomplished.
Can I pay you to build me one? 😊
PhightinPhils 😁
I'm a mom, and you had motivated me, but i have never used a saw in my life, and my son was all over this video. I said 1 of us will end up in the hospital no way we can do this. However we watched your video all the way and what a beautiful job you did. Now can you come to our house? Lol..Thanks for sharing enjoyed it.
i really loved this house! i,m building one like yours. hopefully comes up at least 70% the same. great job!
Most!
I love this! I am planning to build a doghouse for my dog over Christmas break. Would it be possible for you to upload the dimensions and possibly a supply list? Thanks!
Hey Thank You! I have been REALLY busy the last few weeks but next week is a slow one, I will post them in the description of the video and let you know!
Sounds great!! Thank you!
Brilliant job!!
This is Fantastic. Your design is very well thought out. If I had outside dogs I'd do much the same but with pallet wood & I'd insulate it. Thank you for making this video. Making it dissemble like that also means repairs will be easier in the long run. & means mass production can be standardized. Very nice.
Any chance I could get some blue prints?!!! Awesome dog house!
Alexa GarzaThank you and Absolutely. I am currently swamped at work. As soon as I get some free time I'll post them and let you know.
Emit Salazar Thank you. I'd appreciate it
Nice dog house. You inspired me to build a new one for my dog
Can I get the blueprint to this dog house? Really want to build one of these for my great dane. Looks awesome
Any chance I can get the blue prints to that is a sweet dog house I want to build one for my dogs and you did a fantastic job
Do you have a supplies list.I would like to make one myself
Golden Brainy Ill be done with it in about a week. It is very detailed.
Emit Salazar thank you very much
did you ever post a supply list @@RenegadeB1ker
yes please, i want the list too
How much did this cost and how bigs the dog lol
Thank You for Freely sharing Your knowledge and information.
I've got another project now. 🤙

👍🏽
This is amazing. Just wow. I wish I could build this for my doggo
Wow! Looks spectacular!
plot twist - he doesn't have a dog :)
(WE know), ROFL!
You spent 1 day on computer to make that 3D project
And spent 4-5 houra to build it 😂😂
Illyrian Shepherd I spent one day on the computer and 1 month building it lol
Thank you i really love your idea ,you blessed me,im a lady who just started to build and loves it.
Love this comment ☺️

This doghouse is gonna be around for a long time...Well done!!
MNpicker Thank you! I'm planning on converting it into a play house for my children later on. Maybe their children e will use it too. lol
Outstanding work!
Looks great! Nice job! I like that you included a fan in there too.
Thank You!
I aspire to build something this cool & awesome! Great video
I have always made rafters for small building. Cut the 2x4s at whatever angle is going to serve as your roof pitch so they meet flat. Use whatever plywood to match the pitch and make the firsr one a template. Use one on either side of each rafter except the outside two so your siding is flat. I spanned a 10x10 like that 21 years ago with a 45° angle in 1992 and its still perfect today. It gave me over 5ft. of headroom upstairs in that cabin with 7ft. downstairs using 8ft. studs and a double ridge cap.
This is beautiful. I think I'll give this a try.
That looks really nice. Beautiful job
I am very impressed, you did a great job 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Excellent Ryan's Shed Plans. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxn5Hu39f8DPIFYfBbaiOSis3qfw0nqoFp I built the basic model with its help and it turned out great . It is intensive and really educational. Ryan's got another victor! No one can represent it better than Ryan's. Thank you, Ryan's!
I been looking for diy dog kennel ideas for some time now and yours is very very impressive. Your video has inspired me....
I was waiting to see the big dog in his big house. ~Smile!
Fantastic work! Look amazing! I am impressed with your attention to detail!
