Igloo dog house
Date: October 29, 2009
"It was represented to fit a large dog, but unfortunately this is not true. It is too small for my dogs, and I am having to return it to a near by Petco.(a 60 mile round trip) So all the free shipping and delivery and convenience is out the window. Now I have to hope they return my cash, and make it easy to return. I don't want credit, if they don't have something that suits my needs. I printed up the return slip online, Be nice if they had a dog house for a large dog there at the Petco Store in Palmdale, Ca. I can only hope for the best. Need to get the dog house before the weather goes freezing at night."

working out just as I hoped
Date: October 6, 2009
"Bought this for a neighbor with an outdoor cat in preparation for a cold midwest winter. Not the purpose it was intended for, but she's spending a lot of time in it and out of the elements. I'm not in favor of outdoor "pets," but you do what you have to do."

You can't refuse for not buy this!
Date: October 5, 2009
"We have Igloo Dog House since 2006 and our two labs still love it. They sleep together (both are over 100 lbs and fit inside perfect) during heat wave, frigid weather, raining and all weather conditions and still use it every single day! I recommend you buy large round dog bed. Get one - your dog(s) and even cat(s) will thank you!"

"A stray beagle came to our house to stay. I bought her the medium igloo and she was thrilled to death. We tie her up at night, but she even goes in her house to sleep during the day. We all love it."

Excellent Dog House
Date: January 18, 2009
"We already had one Indigo Dog Home for our first dog. Then another dog adopted us, so we had to get another dog house. Both dogs are now happy they have a nice warm place to get during wet, cold weather. :-) The house keeps them warm and dry. It is also very easy to clean. All you have to do is pop off the top and rinse it out. This is the best dog house to get for your pet!"

I'm so happy I bought this!
Date: November 29, 2008
"We purchased this item for a feral cat who sometimes stays under our deck. Winter was approaching and we worried how he would make it through another frigid north-east winter since we had taken down the old shed he often took refuge in. We placed it near his food dish and waited to see if he would use it. I'm happy to report I saw him sleeping in it this morning. We also purchased the pad (sold separately) and added a sherpa pad for warmth. Bogey seems very happy, too."

wonderful
Date: November 10, 2008
"We have had the dog house for a week now and my 3 Pekes love it! I put one of their favorite blankets in their new house and they piled right in. I am about to order another just to give them a little more room. Sammy leads his blind brother, Cosmo, into the house and they snuggle all night long. Nicky will have one all to himself in about a week. It was very easy to assemble and well worth the money."

Mr Bear Loves It!
Date: October 26, 2008
"This was deffinitly a really good purchase and well worth the money. Constructed well with a popup ventilation cap on top. It's very sturdy. At first Mr. Bear didn't want anything to do with the Indigo/Igloo. He would rather sleep under the deck on the ground instead of in the house. I had a rug in there at first; then I decided to buy a bail of straw and put that in instead of the rug. Boy, did that make a difference. Once I put the straw in it, I couldn't get him out of it. It literally became his home.
We live in Michigan where the winters can be pretty harsh and at night on those really cold nights we would bring him in to sleep. There was a time when he enjoyed sleeping in the house on cold nights but after he got used to the Igloo, with the straw in it, all he did was whine to go back outside. On some nights I let him out and he went straight to the Igloo. When I went to change his straw and he saw me reaching into the Igloo, he would climb in so I couldn't take the straw out. He became visibly upset that I made him get out so I could change the straw. I think that he thought I was going in it or going to take it away. Not sure which but either way, he didn't like it. After I got done he climbed right in and stood there looking at me.
It is truely a nice dog house that I would recommend to anyone who has an outside dog. You can even get a door to go over the opening far added protection from the elements. The resale on these is pretty good to do the the style and sturdy construction. I know someone who sold theirs for well over half of what they paid for it."

"I bought one of these dog igloos' for my Golden Retriever and it was great!!!
At first he wasn't sure about going in, but when he did he loved it!!!
He would stay there and sleep whenever!!!
It's a nice place for him to relax and take some naps =]
I'm just as satisfied as he is!!!

Great Dog House
Date: April 16, 2008
"I recently purchased a home and my indoor dog has become an outdoor dog. We live in Florida and the heat is a concern. The house came assembled, I just put it on the screened porch and the dog jumped right in, he loves his house. It is lightweight and easy to move. He is 20 lbs and has plenty of room in the medium house. The color is not white as it appears in the picture, it is more of a taupe color but is very sturdy and looks like it will be easy to clean. It shipped on 4/14 and arrived on 4/15 fedex ground."
