Added another "bedroom" to the house for only three dollars

Not only did it only cost me $3, I added it all by myself in under four hours of actual labor and one day of drying.





Course the bedroom I added was a plastic dog crate that a buddy found out his dog was smart enough to tear the plastic door frame apart before tearing apart his furniture and I rebuilt with a couple packs of JB weld, but now new dog has her own room and old dog still has her room even though she only showed interest in it again after new dog came and I had to crate her when I went off for an hour or two.

Now that I have both crates setting side by side in the living room both dogs take their treats to their own "rooms" or go to them to sleep in private.

So much could be said and added to this thread, LOL. Another bedroom and only three bucks, never mind. I will keep my mind out of the gutter. I am sure the dogs enjoyed it though.

I thought it was going to be a curtain across an alcove to make a new people bedroom for $3.

If you buy bulk packs it can be found for $18 a six pack.

I'm collecting pallets to make a dog run, which has to be on top of the septic drain field--no driving t-posts. Free ha! Yeah I will make a panel of wire so she can look out and watch the forest.
