portaPUP


Merging the traditional doghouse with flat pack construction, portaPUP is composed of 5 pieces of wood allowing for simple assembly without fasteners into a rigid, portable shelter.  The panels are made of locally sourced cedar, lightweight for ease of travel/portability and resistance to moisture and sunlight, making it an ideal doghouse on the go.  The flat pack design and structure allow for freedom of movement and can be assembled and disassembled in an instant.  Intersecting areas of portaPUP create storage space while assembled.  Strategic perforations and voids allow portaPUP to breathe while providing shade, creating a comfortable and tranquil space for all dogs seeking an escape from the Texas heat.
