gurney valley 0 Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Dry your dog down with a towel put plenty of bedding in for them and they shouldn't really need a heat lamp well thats my opinion anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chilly 59 Posted December 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 i think that she prob could do fine thro the winter without the heat lamp provided she is dry etc , but want it there so it can go on when needs be, like i said put it on last night to test it out and she didnt bother just went in her sleeping box as normal just out of interest what do you lot use as bedding for your dogs and how often do you need change it i got a quilt in for mine , do any of you use natural bedding hay etc and do you put it deep so they can bury into it or just couple of inches ?
