Getting sent to the doghouse used be a solid expression for getting in trouble, but I’m not so sure it holds up anymore. Man’s best friend is moving up in the world, as you can tell from these seriously swanky doghouses. These are possibly nicer than the AirBnB you stayed at during your last vacation.
Looking to upgrade your pup’s pad? If you got some extra cash, any of these would be an amazing splurge. And if you’re like most of us, they’re at least a lot of fun to look at.
