Dog Houses

• Our dog house is a revolutionary concept that caters to all of the needs of your best friend– It is a warm place for your dog to stay outside,

even in the extreme climate of Colorado– It is always dry. We filled all the cracks, and our

new dual layered roof is sure to not let any water inside.

The Breed

• Labrador have a life span of twelve years• There are many colors of labs: golden,

chocolate and black• Many websites say that labs over 100 pounds

are obese• Matthew's dog is obese

• Based on this we made a larger dog house

Page 4: The Dog House

The Breed• This dog house was designed for a Labrador• Labradors are generally 22-24 inches and 65 to 75 pounds• Matthew’s dog is bigger than the average for the breed, so

we made our dog house much bigger than that.• More information on the breed can be found at these

websites:• www.akc.org/breeds/labrador_retriever/• www.dogbreedinfo.com/labrador.htm
