Carpet through the summer..then as it gets colder i give em each a double quilt...never had any problems with cold dogs...although having a good well insulated draught free kennel is just as important as the bedding imo..atb stabba

Same as myself Stabba carpet in the hotter weather easy too manage easy too source,

 

Then when the weathers on the change its a bit of carpet back over there box's enterance and all i do is get a few of the supermarket home brand bedding quilt coverrs and fill them with staw that way it dont go everywhere and can be emptyed straight into the bin, and refilled..

 

But like you say a draught free box IMHO is the most important thing that way the can hold condition without shivering and lossing weight trying too keep warm

Yeah old rugs and quilts,i go to local charity shops they sell them 50p each then just chuck them out when they wet.

When they are wet?? Do you not rub/dry your dog down before bedding it down after a hard day/night ? plus my dog run has a good roof on so when it rains the pen dont get wet.
