Whether you have dogs, rabbits, goats, horses, or other outdoor animals, it can be a challenge to protect them from inclement weather. One solution is purchasing a prefabricated shelter where they can find food, warmth, and safety. Old Hickory Buildings® can be customized to fit your needs. In this guide, learn more about why you should bring one to your property.

Why You Should Buy an Old Hickory Building® for Your Animals

1. All Animals Need Access to Shelter

Whether you have outdoor pets or farm animals, you must provide them with a sturdy shelter for protection from snow, ice, and rain. Animals left to fend for themselves in the winter are susceptible to injuries and illnesses. They also need protection to access unfrozen water and food.

2. They’re Long-Lasting

Many animal owners invest in cheap, lightweight, or poorly constructed shelters that don’t last more than a couple of years. Old Hickory Buildings are constructed from treated kickboards for extra durability. They’re also portable, so you can move the shelter around your pasture or property as your needs change over the years.

3. They Can Be Customized

Old Hickory Buildings can be built to accommodate your needs. They can be constructed with one or two openings, include doors if your animals need to be enclosed, and have dividers to separate animals. They also come in a variety of sizes, allowing you to create feed rooms for storage.
