Sniffing around the net for some content for this week’s post; I came upon these sustainable doghouse designs from Sustainable Pet Design.
Designer Stephanie Rubin’s Greenrrroof animal homes filter water, grow plants, insulate temperature and sound, attract bees and butterflies, and with the right plants, can even repel fleas. Colors are custom and, as you can see, there are a variety of designs (they make birdhouses and such, too). Plant and wood choices can create a nice aroma and canine aesthetic. Only non-toxic materials are used in construction, including zero-VOC paints, natural , fragrant cedar planks and beeswax waterproofing.
Don’t choke on your kibble when you see the prices – think art and design and if you really get inspired you can always go all DIY if you can’t muster the cash.
