cold little boy I have a yorkie/silky mix and only weighs one pound and he is having a hard time staying way by himself. I want to know if there is a way that I can keep him warm in his crate all night without using a heat pad, I am worried about him chewing on the cord. I was wondering if the rice bags would stay warm all night. Does anyone else have any ideas?:confused: :( |
I know that the rice bags won't stay warm all night. I used a heating pad under the crate and it seemed to work good for Myah. She was only a pound when I brought her home a month ago. I also cut a old sock and made a little sweater for her to wear at night or when we went outside. If you make a cut before the heel part of the sock and then cut a area out for the legs, it works out great. I also have a stuffed dog that I put in her crate that she snuggles up with. |

Would it help to cover him with a nice soft blanet, as well? Mine still like to be covered up. |
oh what about pj's? Layla wears flannel pj's int he winter because it is so cold here. |
What about making a rice sock? Mine do stay Warm for a Pretty long time. http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Rice-Sock Also have you had him Checked out at the vets? |
I just saw a product at PetSmart that lays under your dog's kennel mat and reflects their body heat back towards them. Maybe that would work? Also, when Boog was small I cut the end of the sleeve off of some old sweatshirts, cut 2 holes for his front legs and an opening for under his belly...they made nice little turtle neck sweatshirts for him. Are you sure it's not blood sugar or a health issue? |
I went today after I took him to the animal hospital and bought a little jumper, sweater, reflective heat mat for under his bed, and a heat pad, I want to cover all angles and try different things until I find something that works. When I get to bring him home I don't want him to be chilled ever again. He has pnemonia, and I want to help him stay warm when he comes home. I know that the floor is cold under his cage so I am trying to prevent it from reaching him. |
