I'm using this in my dog house. Will it keep the my pets warm?

Yes but unsure if it safe for pets/humans? I believe that it gets up to 80 degrees. Very effective on snow and ice.

I don't know specifically, but insofar as it keeps the ambient temperature above 32 degrees it has to help. Your dogs will let you know.

not for a dog house...get a heating blanket pluged into a ground fault plug...keep it dry...just a suggestion and not sure of this is safe for the dog...

If it gets down into the 30's (Farenheit) or colder, I'd put an electric pet bed heater under this to keep the kitty warm. That's what I've done in both my garage and in a box on my front porch for the two feral kitties who have claimed my property as theirs. I also put half of a micro fleece blanket wrapped in a donut shape around this pad, so the cats have a bit of a "bowl" to snuggle down into.

I would be cautious about that high a heat. I used my heater for a Turtle and it was wonderful. Please consult a dog Doctor to be sure about where to set the thermostat - and God Bless -

I'm not sure. I only have one indoor only cat, so she gets it all to herself. I think it would depend on how the cats in the colony get along. Just a heads up, if you're going to be placing it outside, the heat won't last as long. Mine is inside our house, burried in her cat bed and it stays warm almost for 24 hours. If its outside in the cold, and not insulated (wraped in a thin blanket or towel) it will cool off rather quickly. Also, the pad isn't "hot" its warm, so if it has been burried in too many blankets or something similar, the warmth of it may not reach the cat at all. It takes a minute for me to be able to feel the warmth through the pillow I have it under, but my cat loves this! She's on it all day!

I would probably recommend the medium bed for a 26-pound dog. Yes, the bed seems to definitely keep my dogs warm. It's thick and comfortable.

Yes it would. I used it in a room to help dry the mud for drywall. And when I went back in the following morning it was very warm in the room.

It will only help a little in a room that size. Unless it's well insulated it won't keep up with the whole room. If you just need it to be warm directly in front of the heater it will help. The thing is noisy as all hell, be warned, it will keep you awake at night.

Depends the dog house was very small for my pet..it's more for a chihuahua or a small doggie and dog house doesn't have ventilation so it may get too hot in the summers.

My opinion, it doesn't work. It's a gimmick. The surface temperature is no different than say, your coffee table or kitchen table. If you have hardwood or tile floors, they will conduct and hold the ambient temperature far better. We live in the south where it's hot all the time. Our dogs are always looking for the coolest place in the house to lay. After a month of trying to get them to, neither dog would lay on it. If I put it in the coolest place where they preferred to lay (stone fireplace hearth) they'd lay someplace else. Save your money.

One more thing I forgot to mention is that the pad does not feel warm to the touch, if the pet is not on it. Once the pet is on it, if I feel under her body, it feels "just right" warm. I guess this is a good thing, so the pad is not hot all the time, needlessly.

No, the mattress does not retain heat from the dog's body. I have 9 large breed dogs, each have their own orthopedic durable/ waterproof product; everyone happy.

I have used this for my bird when she has been sick, I put a under a blanket then set her cage on it and cover her cage with blankets to keep the heat in. I think it should work fine!

Can I buy this for a dog that gets cold? I want to only use it indoors though.

I would hate to offer you a response. I used this heater in a non heated building and it kept me warm as long as I was in close proximity. You may be better served if you asked the manufacturer.

My room is above the garage and stays very cold. I use it all night and set it to low on excessively cold days For the animals. I have no issues with it at all.

If you leave it on all the time, it will keep a small to medium sized room fairly warm. It will not heat a room right away or keep a room warm if its really cold. The one issue I have with this heater is that it cracked after normal usage.
