I found SimGuru Grant's tweet about it:
You can blame me for no dog houses, and I stand by it. Dog houses are a weird relic of the past and not the experience we wanted. We wanted your cats and dogs to be inside, on the sofa. The dog houses have to be HUGE, which are so odd. Sometimes we will not repeat the past.
His reasoning is sound.
If we were to have dog houses, the dogs would be left alone outside at night. That is such a sad thought. I want my dogs at the sofa or beside my bed when they sleep. Making them sleep outside is just cruel, very third-world and a thing of the past. If you wanted them to stay outside, you should have gotten a wolf or a coyote.
No, I do not want dog houses. More pet furniture is welcome, but I do not want my dogs outside. Especially in the sims.

First of all even children can die in the game but dogs(literal wolf like species) cant stay outside is ridiculous. It makes 0 sense and it's like top level of being snowflake. And I can still left dogs outside. It's not stopping people from leaving dogs outside. And in many barns or houses dogs or cats live outside. And game has stray pets in brindlenton bay. And there is also lot trait for pets to come to your house basically they're stray animals stay in your garden or building. So it's contradicting and nonsense statement.

What about the strays in Brindleton Bay it's constantly raining and thunderstorms yet the have no shelter majority is sick so you can't take them to the vet but the dog house is wrong? Also some pets sleep outside on the ground I would rather them sleep in the dog house or a pet house then just on the ground.
