    Default Dog house

    Hi all. Here is my latest project. We are searching for a small family dog and are favouring an Australian Terrier.

    I have used Karri and Cypress pine pickets and posts and then oiled all exterior faces with Wattyl decking oil. This is also my first project where I got to use my new C1 Bradder in anger. Goodbye hammer .

    Let me know what you think.

    Looks good, just got a crook neck looking at them .
    Reality is no background music.

    It looks good but I'm not sure what type of dog you have, must be a weird breed if they like laying on the side rather than the floor

    Thanks for the positive feedback guys. I am searching for an Australian Terrier and doing some research into puppy care. It has been over 25 years since I have looked after a dog!

    Thanks Redgum_box. Very true. Luckily a well timed project or two for the better half goes a long way in limiting my time in there
