If it's too hot for you, it's too hot for the dog. :shrug: Fenced in an area for a friend and built a roof over it. Kind of a low car port. Dog house under that and the dogs still dug under the dog house in the summer to get to the cool dirt.Speedy70 said:Hypothetically, would you use an Amish-type built shed for a dog house on a hot day like today?
Hypothetically, this shed has small windows that are open, but that's it for ventilation. Wouldn't that cook a dog on a 94 degree day? Hypothetically, of course.

Mine like to trench around the azaleas when they're not inside w/their faces over the AC vent on the floor!Vince said:If it's too hot for you, it's too hot for the dog. :shrug: Fenced in an area for a friend and built a roof over it.

Speedy70 said:There is a chain link kennel attached to the shed and the dog enters through a doggy door. There is a small water bottle out there (one of those small automatic ones), but I don't see any shade offered on the kennel.
I know it's got to be hot as hell inside that shed.
seriously, it sounds like you all have way too much time on your hands, if the guy built a kennel attached to his shed, and their is a doggie door, i think the guy has it under control.cattitude said:I doubt you can get anyone to do anything. I've seen worse conditions and AC thought it was fine. Have you checked on the dog? He may be fine.

Do you have a spare window unit you would be willing to donate?Speedy70 said:My Dad has several of these types of sheds. This time of year they get hot as hell inside.
My dog sleeps in an air-conditioned house on a king-sized bed all day :shrug:Speedy70 said:Hypothetically, would you use an Amish-type built shed for a dog house on a hot day like today?
