I want a dog closet - YorkieTalk.com Forums

inabowbina · 12-04-2009, 10:10 PM

If anyone has anything... i have a ton of dog clothes and want a little armoire to help me organize their stuff. I been looking at like baby closets and stuff but have not found anything yet. Its really silly to me to buy a 200 dog closet like this one http://www.collarplanetonline.com/se...Dog-Pet/Detail if anyone has anything they want to sell or have any ideas for me thanks

That really is a cute closet...........pretty penny, but cute.

I have all of Shelby & Seymours stuff in a bookshelf unit. I have baskets on the lower shelves and on the top one, I purchased a closet rod (spring type) for hanging clothes. I bought some really small curtain rods and hung some pretty curtains over the "hanging" part of the bookshelf. It cost less than $50 dollars!

Check around at some antique shops or antique auctions in your area. We have bought some really cute small armoires for around $75 to $100 that are already fitted with drawers. We usually sell them in our antique shop for $150 to $195.

I use those clear plastic tubs with lids that are 32" L x 14" W x 6" H. You can slide them under the bed if you don't have shelf room. I'm looking for a chest to put all their blankets in now.

I made an armoire with two Closetmaid units from Lowes. One unit has two drawers, the other two shelves. Take the shelves out of that one and install two PVC pipes to hang the clothes on.

Each unit was $34.95 and for $75 I got an armoire that holds much more than the little ones designed for pets.

I need another one, but we've stored the overflow in plastic under the bed storage boxes and this way. LOL!

I have got to get more clothes for my babies

Also, perhaps you could try the IKEA kids section if you have one near you? They usually have such cute inexpensive kids stuff...so it might work with dog clothes too.

I have this one for Lacey. It holds a lot of clothes. I have already filled it so I bought two of the matching nightstands and have started filling those. I am unable to post pictures here, but I have pictures in my album. I like LadyMoms idea also.

Its just so expensive and i don't think its big enough for all the clothes i have now that i see it full with yours. your dogs room is too cute. me and my boyfriend are moving into this huge house we just got a nice deal on it and it has 5 bedrooms so one of them is going to be the puppy bedroom lol.
