| I t hasn't been hot enough here for the AC yet, but yorkies are prone to over heating so I would definitely have the air or a fan on if it is hot where you are. |

| I know this sounds crazy but we keep our house at 78 all the time. I am always cold so I prefer 80 but everyone else likes it a little cooler. But since this is texas and its 110 outside that means yes the a/c is on all day!

| I am the exact same way and am dealing with the same 110 plus temps. We have our thermostat set at 78 year round too. It's a dry heat my ace...it's hot and 78 feels pretty comfy compared to outside! It is midnight here and it's still almost 100 so we would die without air 24 hours a day...

| Lately it's been hot (80's and 90's) here in Wisconsin, and the humidity has been outrageous. I always have a fan on, and the ac is on most of the time. The dogs do fine with this. |

| I usually leave the AC on at 75 degrees. That way it's not cold, but if it gets too hot, the air will be good.

| We leave our AC on non stop during the summer. When it's winter time, the heat is on (not to hot though) and we keep a fan on. They seem to like that.

| Here in Texas, we are running full time air. I would not consider turning it off when we were gone. Upstairs the kids try to run theirs on 60, it is a constant battle to make them leave it alone. I add a chore everytime I catch them. Since the cold air comes down to us, I keep ours on 78 and freeze in the livingroom, sweat in the bedroom (even sleeping.)

| If it is extremely hot (80's+) then the air stays on. If not, we leave a fan on and a few windows open (ones that no one can get into) |
