A Guide to Creating Dog Friendly Gardens

Create the Ultimate Chill Zone For You And Fido

There are mancaves and lady dens, so when it comes to man’s best friend, there should be an ultimate chill zone as well. 50% of pet owners in the States revealed that their pets stay outside, which means this is an opportunity to create the ultimate pet zone. Whether it’s an impromptu trampoline kitted out with a ball pit or something a little more extravagant, there is great satisfaction in the knowledge that your furry best friend is living their best life. When you get to share in that joy, it just creates that inseparable bond pets are known for.

Designer Dog Houses That Are On Fleek

If you happen to have half a million to spend on a dog house, a special design from Andy Ramus might just be on the cards. His award-winning dog houses retail for around $417,000 and includes better tech than most houses. Retina scanners, plasma TVs, and filtered water are just part of the deal. While a little on the extravagant side, there’s no denying that this will be the ultimate chill zone for you and your beloved furbaby. You could also copy socialite Paris Hilton by building your pets a luxury mansion, although it may set you back a cool $325,000. This abode is dubbed The Mansion and includes all the design elements that may just tempt pet lovers to become an official Hilton pet sitter just to chill in the pet digs.

DIY Dog Retreats

If you’re a DIY enthusiast, setting up the ultimate play area for your pup can be as intricate or simple as you desire. If you have the space in your back yard, garage kits are quick to set up and can easily incorporate all the design elements you need. The space would need to be both functional and comfortable and by doing this yourself, it’s fully customizable. This means you get to choose flooring that works well with Fido but also looks great, wall treatments that make sense, and furnishings that can withstand a game of tug-o-war and the occasional mud and rain sessions that could leave your furry friend less than pristine.

Can You Dig It?

If you happen to have a pup who is a little overenthusiastic when it comes to gardening and you’re hoping that a pet retreat will make a difference, it surely can. Pet obedience expert Cesar Milan ranks creating a digging spot as one of the top items on his list for creating the ultimate pet area. Bury some toys and chewables in this area to encourage them to explore the dirt. Other recommendations by Milan include marking posts, shade covers, tunnels, and watering holes all go down well with adventures pups. Include some toys and comfortable seating for yourself for the ultimate chill time.

It makes sense to give man’s best friend the ultimate chill zone, and if you happen to be in the area with him, it just makes it all the more merrier.
