Alternative Dog Playpen Designs: Philippine Style

After a thought, I redesigned the original plan I had made with the playpen.. and instead of integrating a doghouse inside the playpen, I opted for a table on top.
(See original design here.)

This is the inspiration for both pieces that can be bought online at cheappetstore.com for US$179.99.

Designing Your Custom Doggie Playpen!

Our terrace which houses my baby pug, Borgy, is currently being fitted with glass windows and screen doors - which incidentally covers the window "grill" where Borgy is leashed to.

So, upon researching other alternative, viable methods on doggy containment, I liked the idea of creating Borgy's very own custom - made playpen (which also relieves neck force on my pug because now he can be "unleashed"! (Pardon the pun!)

Here is a rough draft of my design. I have yet to find a maker who can do this playpen to my satisfaction and budget.. so if you know anyone, please contact me immediately!

Also, your suggestions will be most dearly appreciated! Thanks :D

I designed this enclosure keeping in mind the hot climate of the Philippines. Unlike other rich puggies, my baby Borgy doesn't have the luxury of having his very own A/C unit (though he has 2 dedicated Electric Fans). I designed the doggie house with a wooden front panel but no side walls so that the air can circulate better but my pug still feels like that space is his own.

For those who would like to make their own custom doggy playpens or houses, please make sure that the doghouse can accomodate your dog standing up and maybe moving in a tight circle. Make sure it isn't too large for him (so that the heat is maintained in cool nights and days), and that it isn't too small that he couldn't move around or stand in it.

I chose to have the Mat inside the doghouse a removable item so that it can be washed and since pugs shed too much hair, it would be easier to clean.

Also, I prefer not to use any plastic because 1.) plastic retains odors more than wood, and 2.) dogs can chew off plastic.

I also don't want to put in any flooring on the whole playpen since I think it would be more difficult to clean it (because again of the excessive shedding) and because the stink of it might stick to my dog.

Remember that this space will be your dog's very own "crib", and like ourselves, we prefer a little bit of this and that. Make sure that your dog will love this space and that he will be very comfortable in it.

Here are other doggie houses and playpens I have seen on the Net that I liked:

A luxurious looking doghouse but it looks strangely open at the back hihihi

This wicker indoor dog house would really look good in a Pottery Barn home :D


A Golden Retriever with a plaid red and white neckerchief would be perfect in this hillbilly-style dog house.
This is just plain sweet for your little pup :D

The Pursuit of Ivy's Happy-ness

The Author with Ivy (On the Left)

Ivy is one of my best friends.. she is the kind of person who not everyone agrees with.. especially girls. I don't know why because Ivy is a fiercely loyal friend. It must be because her personality comes off as particularly strong, and the fact that she lacks any kind of tact (which by the way I find endearing), and maybe because she gets the boys.

Most girls can become so bitchy and envious about this. And a lot of times Ivy has had to defend herself, and I do too though I don't tell her that.

I've known her half her teenage life and most of her adult life, and I've seen her go through break-ups after break-ups.. just the ordinary girl who wants to find love, you know.

And so finally, she did.

The Author with Bruce (Ivy's Boyfriend)

Bruce is not Filipino. I was wary of him when she first told me because I can become quite suspicious of foreigners.

But I was pleasantly surprised to find that Bruce is not the stereotypical British guy. He was funny (a bit cheeky if you ask me hehehe), and extraordinarily open about himself.

I think Ivy is having difficulty with a lot of people trashing her and her relationship with Bruce (that includes immigration hehehe) because most pinoys would think that Ivy is only using Bruce.

Well, Ivy is anything BUT a person who uses other people for personal gain. She can be quite a (stingy!) flirtatious girl and some might say promiscuous.. but I have never known her to be anything but herself.

This is the happiest I've seen of her and I'm more than glad because she deserves it! :D
