2017 Entry
The Doggy Paddle
Hot Dog
The “Hot Dog” award is presented as the overall runner-up to the winner of the Bark + Build design competition and as second place winner.
The Doggy Paddle House is a great place for man’s best friend to escape the Texas heat. The expandable house reveals a doggy pool to offer a chance to cool their paws if the heat is just too much. Anti-microbial turf is used as the flooring to provide a cool, comfortable, and clean place for your furry friend to call home. The open floor plan and chimney use sustainable practices to promote air movement across the dog with the help of a solar panel and fan. Incorporation of pastel colors are used to promote a calming feeling as they enjoy their time within the house. The expandability allows for easier transportation and flexiaibility for the owner!
