i was outlook about buying one for my pitbull but i wanted to know if anyone would recomend them...are they sturdy and well insulated
i live in san antonio texas...the winters are not unyielding down here...rarely touching 35degrees and can get up to 70degrees during Dec-Feb

A: Never reproach getting on of those plastic doghouses. Homemade wooden ones are so much better. The plastic ones get transgressed easily over time.
I found this large wooden one thats for sale in your city, and it cost less than a cheap fictile one.

I have a female 2 year old labrador retriever and she needs a new dog billet. i found the Indigo Dog Igloo-Style Dog House by Doskocil at petsmart but where can i find a large
i like the igloo kinds
with air vent

A: Try orscheln or Walmart. Petco is valuable!

I have need of two of these for my dogs who are both over 100lbs. It seems that everyone sells the medium size, but no large. Does anyone know of a website or aggregate in the Raleigh, NC area that sell these at a reasonable price? Thanks!!

A: Lowes sells Dogloo's at a conservative price, since I found out about their prices with the Dogloo's, I have gotten all of mine there. Look here at the prices of the Dogloo II http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?enterprise=productDetail&productId=35067-73671-25934

If it will work, then I will offer you $18, but I will need your help getting it in place in the tree. I am terrified of heights. I have not always need [sic] scared of heights but about 10 years ago, when my son was 3 I was cleaning the gutters on the second story of our house. I had the ladder setup on an awning over the entrance to our home. The ladder started to wobble and I thought that I was going to fall, but thankfully I did not. then about 5 years ago I was prunning branches out of the tree that I want to put the igloo in and a branch fell and hit me. Don't worry, it wasn't big but it was scary. Then about 2 years ago I was putting up christmas lights and I was on my ladder again and I waited too long to put up the lights and with was very cold (and icy, but I didn't know that when I started) and as I was reaching to hang the last strand the ladder fell out from under me and I fell. I fell from about 6 feet right on to my behind and I fractured my tailbone. They can't really do anything fo [sic] that so I just had to endure the pain and sit on a doughnut at work all day, and now since that last incident I have not wanted to climb up a ladder or be high off the ground. Ok, so right off the bat we get that this dude’s a bit wacky. He wants to turn a used dog igloo into a tree fort for his son. Yikes. But, hey, maybe he’s just a creative, industrious type? Nope, reading on, it gets creepier. The tree is 40 feet—as in four stories or 40 Subway sandwiches—tall. Not quite the frumpy, tire-swing-clad oak most of us think of when we picture a fort-housing tree.
