After I renovate my room, this would be my next project. Can you recommend a good but inexpensive wood for a dog house?

For those who already built one...is it hard to build a dog house? I absolutely have no carpentry skills but I just want to try.

Me too! I also need help with this.

I know pine is pretty inexpensive, so you might want to see about sheeting. It's not that hard to make if you have a circular saw. If you don't and plan on using a handsaw...I would say it will take some time and you will probably be sore the next day.

I'll bet if you google "doghouse" there will be a site that gives you the exact dimensions to cut the wood, then all you do is hammer the nails in and do whatever they suggest to protect from the elements.

Doghouses are expensive so let me know how it turns out and how much it costs for materials if you do it.
