| Abstract | This research is a combination of qualitative and experimental studies aimed at 1) investigating and experimenting to find the appropriate ratio of local clay from Chumphae District, Khon Kaen Province; 2) studying the physical characteristics of dogs and the design of dog house products 3) designing a dog house product from local clay of Chumphae District and 4) evaluating the dog house product from local clay of Chumphae District. The study population includes: the group providing information on the study area and clay. the group providing data for the design of the dog house product; experts responding to questionnaires; and the target group for evaluating satisfaction. Research instruments include physical testing of clay. Observation of pet behavior recording tests of temperature reduction of the product and evaluation of product drafts. The research process involves experimenting with clay mixtures to find the appropriate ratio, revealing that Formula 6, consisting of 60% Chumphae clay, 10% charcoal, and 30% Lampang white clay, when fired at 1,100°C, results in a shrinkage of 13%, water absorption of 11.6%, and a brown-orange color. The study of the physical characteristics of small-breed dogs found that their height ranges from 23 to 66 centimeters, and body length from 30 to 45 centimeters, with a playful temperament. Observing their behavior, it was found that dogs can continuously use the product. Therefore, the researcher developed three prototype designs 1) a spherical shape with a side water compartment, internal dimensions of 60 × 60 centimeters 2) a spherical shape with two side water compartments, internal dimensions of 60 × 60 centimeters and 3) a design with a top water compartment, internal dimensions of 95 × 50 centimeters. These designs utilize geometric shapes and design principles to reduce, add, and connect forms to suit the dog's usage and align with modern-style homes. Evaluation results indicate that the product is strong, safe for both dogs and owners, can be installed both semi-exterior and interior, is easy to clean, and can reduce temperature by approximately 2–3°C when water is added to the designated compartments. Additionally, the evaluation of satisfaction from a target group of 31 people found an average score between 3.51 to 4.50, indicating high satisfaction. This research can serve as a guideline for further development of dog house products from local clay. |
