 Eye appealing but cheaply made Feb 06, 2008
By Kimberley A. Hanson
"Kim"
I recently bought this dog house for my Beagle/Hound. Its very appealing to the eye however after the first rain one of the boards on the roof started to split. (We've had it 1 month). I'm hoping it holds up because we paid a little over $200. and thats a lot of money to throw away.
I will say that it was easy to put together and its very light.

Works well as a duck house/coop! Aug 20, 2011
By dana_mae
I don't know how this house would hold up against our 70+ lb Labrador, but it works great for our ducks!
We have 3 pet ducks who need to be protected from predators at night. We had a heck of a time finding a suitable, attractive shelter that didn't cost a fortune - which is why I feel compelled to write this review.
Why it's a good duck house:
* Interior is 6.7 sq ft, which works out to 2.2 sq ft per bird for our 3 ducks - an adequate amount of space for overnight confinement. (They live outside in a pen during the day.)
* Shuttered side window provides ventilation while protecting from predators.
* Hinged, latching door provides predator protection - other houses we looked at didn't have a door, we would've had to rig one up. The top of the door has open bars - you will want to put hardware cloth or something behind the bars to keep critters like `coons from reaching in and terrorizing your ducks. Make sure to bend the sharp edges of the hardware cloth under so your ducks won't get hurt. :)
* Removable roof and floor panels make for easy cleaning - but be advised that while the roof is "removable", it is not hinged. You have to actually unscrew it I believe. We're going to modify our roof somehow, so we can just lift it up/off (but there will be a way to lock it down securely on the house).
* It's low to the ground - our ducks don't need a ramp to get in. We did put a board down on the ground in front of the house as a step, but they don't really need it. They can just hop right in.
* Affordable - especially through Amazon w/ free shipping.
I hope this helps any other duck owners looking for a shelter/coop for their quackers!

 Very Cute ! Mar 28, 2011
By JBGAL
"JBGAL"
Very attractive doghouse. This can easily crossover as a chicken or duck coop. My chicken coop had an electrical fire. Decided no more heatlamps so got this doghouse because when the birds huddled together in it, it will keep them warm. Just have to add a few things to it to turn it into a functional coop (add cinder blocks, ramp, shelves, wedge to keep door partially open or cut bottom part of door). Was looking at other coops online and this can do the trick for 6 chickens easily. Took my handyman all of a half hour to put together.
Update: 10-18-2011. Being I had someone weatherproof seal the outside, it is holding up well. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU SEAL THE OUTSIDE TO MAKE IT LAST AND LOOK SOMEWHAT SHINY. It is not difficult getting the chicken eggs out of this If making it a coop, just put hay in it and the chickens lay their eggs in it.

Perfect dog house Jan 20, 2012
By Natalee'sMa
This was very easy to put together and has been a great dog house, very sturdy and attractive in our back yard. We have two large dogs and both of them have fit in at the same time!

Nice and easy. Nov 01, 2011
By SGTLOWE
The house came neatly packaged and all pieces were there. The house was extreamly easy to put together. Me being a guy I could even put it together CORRECTLY without the instructions. Which is quit a feat if you ask my wife!
Overall I am happy with the product. I am using it for two pygmy goats and thy seem to like it just fine. Now we will see how well it holds up in the long run.
