Canine Haven

Big Dog
The “Big Dog” award is presented to the team that presents the best design for large dogs.

Our innovative doghouse design draws inspiration from the natural behavior of dogs, providing a harmonious sanctuary that taps into their instinctive need for retreat and safety. The design celebrates a dog’s innate burrowing and nesting behavior, featuring a cozy tunnel which creates a secure and private space. Embracing the spirit of canine companions, our design incorporates playful elements that mimic their active behavior, encouraging them to explore, engage in physical activities and back to resting. Openness allows the dog to socialize with its furry friends and still be protected from the elements.
