* Subverted in the ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'' episode "Hank's Choice" where Bobby suddenly develops an allergy to the family's pampered bloodhound Ladybird, and Hank builds a "doghouse" in the form of an elaborate clubhouse with windows, a skylight, exterior lighting, gutters, a picket fence, and radiant heating in the floor. When Ladybird refuses to use it, Hank offers it to Bobby with a cable TV hook-up, a mini-fridge, and a cordless phone. Bobby falls in love with the place after it's basically become his own personal apartment and refuses to leave, but Hank's neighbors just see that he's sent his son to live in a doghouse and he becomes a laughingstock.
