The grooming, the doggie sweaters, the organic treats and ergonomic dog beds are one thing, but dog toys like these go beyond overboard. These dog house designs are so detailed, so realistic and so expensive that even their human house counterparts can be less attractive. These luxury dog house designs will change your opinion of what a dog house can be, but shouldn’t surprise you with what some rich dog owners are willing to spend to keep their puppies wagging.
Celebrity Hacienda Dog House
View in gallery Does your dog have a flair for the Mediterranean Revival? The Celebrity Hacienda Dog House is a palace for your pup, inspired by the clay tile and stucco wall architecture of the Mediterranean. It features twin wooden doors that open and shut with a bit of pressure from your dog, keeping them sheltered from the elements and perfectly private. Those lights by the door don’t actually work, but with a couple LEDs and some handy wiring, you can give your dog some night time illumination. Good luck trying to get the little guy to cough up for the electric bill, though.
