Create an under-stairs nook…Dogs tend not to relax unless they feel safe enough in their surroundings to nod off. For this reason, it can be good to choose an enclosed area – and the space under the staircase is ideal. It doesn’t have to be a Harry Potter moment – all cobwebs and old vacuum cleaners. With a little thought, you can create a perfect hound home.The great thing about utilising the space under the stairs is that the enclosing wall is non-load-bearing, so you can remove all or part of it with minimal effort – depending on the size of your pooch. Just remember to make it large enough that you can get in to give it a spring clean every now and then.
