Why Cats & Dogs Pack Doesn't Have Dog House or Good Pet Bed Options?

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. 

Yeah, we need one. I have both pets and dogs and my first pet kit. I still dont have a dog bed. I love dogs in my game. Always in my household. But they only have ugly flat pillows or couch to sleep. 

Pets should be sleep on beds too.

I know it's not the same, but the My First Pet kit has some decent stuff for pets, pet beds included. I think another kit with pet related items could be a good solution to this. I would totally love to give my pets more options.

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. 

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.

The reason there was a backlash to MFP stuff is that it was released directly after Cats & Dogs was released and clearly items that had been created with a Pets pack in mind but left out of C&D for probably greed reasons. Any Pet packs at this point would likely be well received due to the time elapse and given very little things for pets have been added to the game since. 

Personally I was rather displeased when MFP was released because the above mention reasons but I would really like a new pack for them.  Here is my Game Pack idea for a lovely update for our furry friends Pampered Pet Pack

Ugh what a fool. I never even used dog houses for my dogs to sleep in, I just loved the look of them outside. And where's his excuse for the awful flat pet rugs (I will never call those things a bed)? I'd rather sleep outside in a miniature house with a cushion than on one of those things. 

Agreed. In all previous sims games (even 1) pets had beds and other furniture that actually looked both comfortable and nice in a house. What we have now is ugly, flat, and extremely lazy. They put more effort into making decorative pillows that barely anyone uses than giving our sims nice things for their pets. 

There's a way to build small sheds that look like doghouses or garden toy houses for kids. Some players even uploaded theirs on the gallery.

You just have to use a trick with leveling down a room so the top of its walls align with the top of the half walls you're going to use, then put a roof on the room, and drag it toward your half walls.

Step 1: make a room

Step 2: drag the room bellow

Step 3: add a roof on this room

Step 4: get rid of the room, and just the room, not the roof.

Step 5: make the dog house walls at the right size, the right height and the right position in front of the roof.

Step 6: drag the roof toward the doghouse.

Step 7: adjust the roof size

Now you decorate however you like.

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.
