Frequently Asked Questions about Dog Houses
Do dog houses keep dogs warm?
Dog houses keep dogs warm by sheltering them from the elements. For cooler climates, look for insulated outdoor dog houses and dog igloos with door flaps or small entry openings to keep warmth trapped inside and cold rain and snow safely out. You can also find outdoor-safe dog warming mats to add extra heat in cooler weather. Be cautious during extremely low temperatures and during damp weather, as hypothermia may be a concern in these conditions. Talk to your vet about appropriate warming measures and always monitor the weather if you are considering leaving your canine outside.
How big should a dog house be?
A dog house for a should be roughly 25% longer and taller than he is. Measure your dog from head to ground for the height measurement and from nose to tail base for the length measurement. Then, add approximately 25% to each measurement to get the right height and length dimensions. Be careful not to choose a dog house that is more than 50% taller or considerably longer than your dog, or he may have trouble keeping warm inside. Be sure the door opening is large enough—but not too large—for your dog to exit and enter comfortably.
What are the best dog houses?
The best dog houses will be suited to the climate you live in, appropriately sized for your dog and made of sturdy, weatherproof materials. Look for good ventilation in warmer climates and insulation if you routinely experience cooler weather. You can choose from both indoor dog houses and outdoor dog houses. Raised dog houses can keep dirt, pests and moisture from getting in, too. Choose from classic slanted-roof dog houses, dog igloos, and styles and materials like wood, plastic or metal. You can even find gazebo or canopy styles to protect dogs in warm climates from the sun.
