Igloo Doghouses - A New Doghouse for Bear (Our Dog)
Ranked #8,898 in Pets & Animals, #225,431 overall
Meet Bear! He needs a new doghouse.
I've been researching igloo doghouses because my dog, "Bear", desperately needs one. Did you know that there are igloo doghouses that are mildew resistant? Did you know they can keep the dogs out of wind and rain? Also that there are igloo doghouse heating pads?
I'm excited about getting a doghouse for Bear. He's about fifty pounds, and I've decided what to get him. He's an outdoor dog and deserves the best housing while he's protecting my life and property. I'm sure you love your dogs as much as I do. Good shelter is a necessity, not just an accessory!
My dog, Bear . . . he's been with me a long time
...but getting him wasn't my idea.
I resisted getting Bear. When my daughter walked in with a second dog I said, "no way"! But my then-boyfriend said, "It's her birthday. Let her get another dog." I got over-ruled! So Bear moved in and before long my daughter (then twelve) discovered she wasn't able to feel as close to Bear as she was to her other dog, Mairi. So the ex-boyfriend became Bear's steady companion . . . until he left six years ago. Then my daughter grew up and left. And guess who has the dog she never wanted? Oh, I've got Mairi too!
Bear lives outside, and Mairi lives inside - for now. I really want to have them both in kennels, outside... but they're both getting old now and need extra care. Bear's current doghouse is old and he rarely uses it - but he spends more time resting and less playing as the years go by. A heated doghouse sounds like something that would be a great comfort to him in his doggie old age. So this is what I'm buying for him.

We need to keep Bear safe from the wildlife that inhabits our forest - so I'll be putting the doghouse in a kennel similar to this one. He gets two walks daily - morning and evening. A dog deserves a safe and sanitary place to live.

- If one is in colder climates, u can get a bigger igloo for your dog and fill it with straw for the winter. Heated pads are great but not great if power goes out.
