something we did for our dog.....put magnets on the entry flaps and and the ledge interior where he enters. He can still easily get in and out, but it will help keep the wind from blowing in.

Amazing and beautiful doghouse! I know Joey can feel the love that y'all give her! I wish more owners would give their animals the love and attention that you all do! All of your furry and feathered family members, are so blessed to have you as their humans❣🥰

I've never seen a channel who truly cares about their animals and they're actually determined to take care of them even though you don't get a lot of attention. Your videos are very fun and enjoyable!

this channel is the inly thing that is giving me the energy to stay alive, thank you guys for posting these videos of your farm, its amazing and I can't wait till the day I can safely say that I have a family and a farm myself, just wanted to say that so you guys might potentially keep making these videos for the few people that are like me.

One thing I can recommend with any animal is to give them options. So in Joey's house, the only thing I might change personally is leaving part of the flooring without the heating pad so that she has the option of moving off it if it gets too warm. When you add heating pads to the kitty house leave some spaces without.

Def dog house. My house is a cat house, and we humans are her servants lol

Think I have said this to y'all before, I get such joy and feel happiness when watch your videos...... Bless you all for that gift.

How long will it take for the cats to discover that the Dog's house is heated? I think the kittens will move in quickly and the older more grumpy, or less tolerant, cats may enjoy having their own space, lol. We placed a magnetic strip along the bottom of both the doorway and flaps on our doggy door to help keep wind and rain out. After a few days her fear of the doorway will fade. Wanting to be with her pack, which she feels is the family, will take longer but I bet it will be 1 or more of the cats that will fill that void at night. The farm animals are not that bonded to her.

when I got my barn cats I found out that blankets and fabric will hold in moister and not dry. So its allot better to only use wood shavings and hay/straw Happy holidays!

I know a friend of mine in the KC area had issues with an aggressive blue healer. A training company called Sit Means Sit came to her and worked with her dog on her property. Worth a shot, good luck.

Great review of the product, looks actually very useful. Now I have to check back over the winter to see how the dog likes his house! And yes the match up with the cat house looks great!!!

Super cool dog house!! I’m going to try something similar for my border collie! Bonus that the design matches my racing pigeons loft!

You guys have a beautiful family, including all of the furry members! So wholesome and heartwarming to watch so much love! Awesome work too of course, thanks for sharing your journey. ❤

I think the dog house looks great. My only suggestion is to insulate the bottom with some 2" rockwool (or whatever leftover insulation you may have in your stash) and cover that with a little more wood. You might want to do that with the cat house too.

Wonderful dog house. Maybe one suggestion when propping on the side of your building and electrical, to add a tiny gutter to aim the water back to the front / side of the dog house away from your building foundation and electrical outlet.

I think you guys should definitely keep the window! It is adorable and it will be perfect for some ventilation in the summer!

That doghouse is AMAZING!! Just so you know cats VERY MUCH crave warmth. Their house is AMAZING also. However, they would be a lot more comfortable with at least, a small source of heat. Both houses look great together btw.😊 --Jessica from Florida 🌞

She’s the sweetest pup and she definitely deserves the best doghouse 💗 LOVE you guys! Happy holidays 🎄

Put the pillow Joey has been using on the porch in the new dog house. It'll be a reminder that new house is for sleeping due to the pillow being recognized as where they sleep now.

NGL I usually don't pay attention to the sponsored bit of most youtube videos. Like, even if I don't actively click past the ad bit, I glaze over and don't pay attention at all, but yall show some genuinely really interesting and useful products in legit settings--and *how they work* which grabs my attention and keeps me focused. It's not just that the products are interesting, yall make it clear how things work and how to use them in real world applications and that makes all the difference.

This and the cat house are fantastic, you really go all out for your animals and its awesome to see!

Around 6:25 where Becky is holding baby Isabella, Isabella's eyes are sooooo pretty. Keep up good work y'all

You also might want to add a small airway at the top of the doghouse so it doesn’t get too humid, we didn’t put one originally for our’s and the dogs refused to sleep there.

Maybe emu not mating with male as "just friends". Mjght check w zoo to see if they are selective. Her running energy might be from wanting to mate, frustration, but she loves dog running along with her.

Honestly it’d be so cool just to help work on that farm I never realized just how big it was until the cow part of the video and the burning cattails video near y’all’s pond

The little window is so cute ... and the heater will keep her warm and cozy even in the coldest nights

You should put those flaps on both sides. That will help keep it warm by creating an air pocket. Air is very insulating but it looks like you are going to have a lot of heating for Joey and they'll be super warm

Becky, the window is key! Good build you guys!

That's a great house for him. I hope he loves it as much as we do ❤️

i love the heater ideas. thanks for sharing.

You build the nicest homes for your animals❤️

Great house. Makes me want to upgrade my dogs house. But here in southern California it doesn't get nearly as cold. One thing I would have done if I were you is not put on the vinyl flaps until she got used to going in and out first. You can tell they confused her a bit when she was preferring the window to go in and out.

Good evening everyone 👋🏻👋🏻 I think the dog house is more like the dog palace it’s lovely 😊

The window that opens will keep her house from over heating in the summer...besides dogs love looking out windows! She'd likely really enjoy a porch to rest upon. Tho't maybe there'd be an overhang across the front roof line...

That is such a great idea! Her house is so cute! Love it!

Your videos are so peaceful and also you have nerves of steel to own that many hives I could never do that I hate insects and your so dedicated to your farm that I feel hope for humanity great videos

Dude you are surrounded by many tiny helpers!! XD So cute!

Brilliant job - and Joey appears to enjoy it as well! (and a few of the cats...!)

The day you put in the aviary will be the best video you’ve ever made!

Nice to see you guys always doing something for your animals like getting the house set up for the barn cats and now this amazing dog house for Joey! It looks like it'll be used very well and I think the window ended up as a success, now Joey can look right out at the amazing view of your farm! Looks like Joey will be having some neighbours🐱🐈 with matching houses! Can't wait for the special thing coming about Dolly and Maisy too, keeps me curious... and possibly anytime soon will there be any emu eggs? But no rush one thing at a time, bamboo will get his moment... cows update first! And about the incident that happened with Joey awhile back, happy to see people reaching out to help but I hope eventually it isn't too confusing, you know? and that Joey manages to learn basic things like controlling the jumping and that kind of things.

I have the same type of dog house but I use straw in it to keep the dogs warm, it has room for 3 border collies but only one wants to sleep in there at a time. I have no window but do find it produces quite a bit of condensation on the inside roof. I bleach the roof inside a few times a year. I also have felt on the roof so the dogs can stand on the top and use it was a look out.

Love the dog house. It matches nicely ✌🏻

Joy feels very loved . You guys are awesome

Props to your kid. He balanced that out with you much better then most would

I hope you all stay safe with the storms coming. Stay weather alert! :)

Great dog house!! Though, I'm thinking playhouse also! The boys enjoyed it too! Such a wonderful family!

you guys are soo creative

Just a tip but my family and I have a cattle business here in Mexico and one thing we do you might wanna try is getting big 55 Gallon plastic drums and cutting them in half to put the hay, alfalfa, corn, etc. it’s because cows are picky and won’t eat around where they have pooped so putting their food in containers helps avoid them wasting food! Love the channel bro!!!

Well done guys. Cheers n have a great time

Did you give the cats a heater and heated floor? If you didn't, you know cats are heat seekers. They might take over Joey's house! 😊 Becky is super-mom! Look how she holds her sleeping baby while staining the dog house! Amazing!

I could never imagine my babies sleeping outside. They're softie little pitbulls that are afraid of their own shadow. With their thin coats and scaredy cat personality I think they'd prefer to stay in warm bed with me. Beautiful work and well thought out!

Gorgeous dog house, just as awesome as the beautiful cat house you built. I love the homes that you build for your animals. I would pay good money for one of those for my 2 cats, I know that they would love it. Your animals are lucky. I love how well you take care of and look out for your animals. If you weren’t so busy on your homestead and if you needed some extra cash, you could easily start up a business building homes for pets! Joey is such a beautiful girl, I hope you find someone amazing who is willing and able to come to your home to train her.

A pallet jack would definitely work out well on your farm! God Bless!
