Before you start building the dog house, you should measure the dimensions of the dog and the size of the walls. After ensuring the measurements, you can begin attaching the roof rafters. For the walls, use two-by-two pieces of plywood. Cut the boards at an appropriate angle and secure them with screws. Make sure to drill pilot holes to prevent the wood from splitting. Next, install insulation boards between the rafters and plywood. Finally, add the roof shingles, if desired. To finish the dog house, you can paint it or add a nice finish.
