Dog Haus: Smart house for our smart pets

Abstract

The aim is to design a space that can provide a better, comfortable, and hygienic living and training to our pet dogs. This space must cater to the basic problems that our dogs face i.e. food and shelter etc. Hence this space must assist in uplifting the physical and mental growth of the dog. Around 190,200 dogs are registered in Kennel Club of Pakistan as per last updated statistics (2016) and this ratio must be even greater by 2020. Many Kennel clubs in our country are giving their services by providing training to the dogs, yet there is no local production of dog houses taking into consideration the ergonomics, training, and comfort of dogs on a domestic level. The idea hence, is to design a modular dog-house to better their experience and training which would help in providing the dogs a smarter lifestyle as well as help the owners to connect with them in a better way and enhance the human-dog bond through interaction.
