Re: Cant get my dog to go into his doghouse
Nice looking house. 
Is there any way to vent the heat? It might be too hot, especially in summer. Also, I'd put something cool or soft on the floor depending on what your dog likes, to entice it. When outside, my dogs like the coolness of the patio or the dirt under the bushes.

Put treats in there & keep it near you when your outside. Offer lots of praise when he goes in.

is the dog going to live in the dog house or is it only for "recreational" use, so to speak :) it's such a cute house. reminds me of snoopy's house

Your dad did an amazing job! I would continue with the treats and praise. Hopefully he will start to use it.
