socks 32,253 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Shredded wax paper .... If its good enough for a top greyhounds worth thousands its definitely good enough for our hard working lurchers ......... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WAYNE. 3 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 i prefer dust free wood shavings , think its better than paper for drying out the dogs coats . agree with samboy paper is very messy and tends to block my drain 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lee65 1 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I use the shredded paper and been very happy with it dogs are warm and happy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Eh, kill a dog, i use duvets no probs, cos they wipe their feet before they go in Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sadie 55 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 If the duvets get wet or damp you will soon find out. As i said, if the kennel is well insulated then damp shouldn't be a problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
foxylady88 0 Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 I've always used straw or shavings, found the dogs like the straw best though, but what ever suits. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Young gun 96 1 Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Oat straw is a good one if you can get it, otherwise shredded newspaper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
