Dog digs. source: petsugar.com
For us, our child is our dog (or is it the other way around?!?). For many of you, your pups are, too. So, when considering the needs of our home spaces, we should definitely include our K9 kids and all their puppy paraphernalia. Today’s room of the day is so spectacular that I’m just giddy about trying something like this in our bungalow.
The main feature furniture piece was originally designed by Pottery Barn. Though they no longer offer this item, you can simply place a dog bed at the foot of a bookcase which could work just as well (just be sure it is anchored to the wall). Baskets for balls, bones and such is a must, along with sturdy hooks for easy access to leashes.
A hardy sisal rug helps lower the tracking of muddy paw prints onto floors and carpets, and a healthy raised bowl, staged neatly under a feature art wall will satisfy your doggie’s appetite for kibble and fluffy fine art.
Whether you can devote an entire room (mud or laundry) or just a small entryway or part of your garage to your best friend, dog decor can be fabulously fashionable and functional for our four-legged furballs.
