Thank you @Evie0602 for the link for the dog house.


It really surprised me how little they put in for the animals, especially dog houses. Then I was really shocked to learn they were deliberately left out because Grant from the EP sims team thinks that people who own dog houses are not good people. I wished had originally been able to say something because I know I would have told him this. First of all how many people leave their dogs outside, while they are at work. The dog is safely in the back yard, with proper shelter, food, water, and toys. Would it be more cruel to have that dog outside without a dog house, no shelter in case they want to get out of the elements. There are also others who have working dogs, dogs used for hunting, farm dogs used for the sheep, cattle, and other farm creatures. What about the dogs that live way up in the north, and are used for sleds, these dogs. But really is any one going to have that many dogs in their home at one time?

I don't know, but those dogs look pretty happy and healthy. I really wished someone would have told him this.

Pretty sure he's referring to the large number of people that get larger dogs and literally just leave them outside all the time like dogs are somehow immune to the heat and cold. Like a pp who said the lack of dog houses is even more obvious now with seasons. He honestly has a really valid point. Are you really missing out on an object that much to use just when your sim in working? Or would most people that expect dog houses as a reality probably just lock the house doors for pets and force the dog to stay outside 24/7? That's against his morals I guess and he didn't want to give anyone that option.

Also, those dog houses wouldn't really provide much in regards to shelter from severe heat or snow, realistically. Farm dogs and stuff probably stay in the barn.
