what size of dog house should i get for a 45 pound collie/husky mixed dog?

Answer 1

i think a large would be best cos my little dogs sleep in a large home to it's good cos they came movie aroud and be more cool in summer and if it get cold put more beding in side i hope that help =)

Answer 2

A really big one with a big doorway with a swinging door. If you live in a climate with really cold winters, you should have a small shed that is heated somewhat, ideally, if you don't let the dog in the house that is. If you get something smaller than a shed, there are various pet supplies that can heat the dog house or even one or 100 watt bulbs would help. Take a look at this! (It's a little extravagent)...

Answer 3

I would get a large (or XL, XXL) one. Both of the breeds your dog is mixed with get pretty big. You want one that will allow your dog to stretch out in and one he can feel comfortable in.

If you live in cold climates, you might want to consider putting a heating in there with a lot of warm, comfortable bedding. If you live in hot climates, put cooling in the kennel, comfortable bedding (you can get bedding that is made specially to cool a dog down in the warm weather) and put a water bowl in there, too.

Answer 4

It should be tall enough that he can stand up in it without stooping, long enough so he can lie down fully stretched and wide enough so he can turn round comfortably. You need to measure the height and length of your dog to get the right size!

Answer 5

hi! well is it a pup?or full grown? if its a husky mixed both breeds get pretty BIG! I have a Amer. Bulldog,and a Great Dane,they are both lrg. breeds.So i would get a lrg. dog house,cause they need room to stretch out in them and be comfortable too.Good luck and have fun with him/her.
