How to Build a House for Your Berger Blanc Suisse: Size

1. You should start your house building process by ensuring the house is large enough to accommodate your Berger Blanc Suisse’s potential adult size. As humans, we enjoy having around two feet of air above us in a room to live without feeling boxed in. Your Berger Blanc Suisse will probably also enjoy having that much space. The comfort zone for both humans and Berger Blanc Suisses is about a third of their standing height. To figure out how much room the Berger Blanc Suisse will need get out a ruler and measure your Berger Blanc Suisse. Measure him standing straight up, sitting on his haunches and especially measure the full dimension of the Berger Blanc Suisse when he is in the most relaxed, comfortable, and stretched out position he can get into. Your Berger Blanc Suisse should be able to see out the front door when both standing up and sitting. So the Berger Blanc Suisse will not have to significantly lower his front shoulders or scrape his tummy, make sure that door is high enough. Stand over the Berger Blanc Suisse and measure the breadth of the broadest point of the Berger Blanc Suisse’s shoulders.

To discourage pests from entering the dog house, and taking your Berger Blanc Suisse’s health into consideration, remember how vital air circulation is. Put in a few nickel-sized openings in the panels underneath the eaves. Install a wind block inside the dog house so the Berger Blanc Suisse can use the warmth of its own body to heat the space if it is really cold or windy outside. Consider adding a partial panel which will permit your Berger Blanc Suisse to escape the unpleasant weather. Your animal can decide to just snooze in the entry room or go around the inner archway maze wall into the inner room. Your beloved Berger Blanc Suisse would probably appreciate having a pillow or some sort of bedding to sleep on.
