This dog house is cute and very easy to put together.  I did it by myself in about 15-20 minutes.  My complaint about this house, however, is that the roof is flimsy.  My dog doesn't even weigh ten pounds, but the first time he jumped on the roof the "shingles" cracked a bit.  After a few rain showers, the house is now starting to buckle where it was cracked.  I would recommend the house only if your pet isn't a jumper or if it will be put in a dry, sheltered area.
