Safe Outdoor Enclosures for Dogs

If you have a dog in your family, or if you are thinking about getting a dog, then you may also be thinking about purchasing a dog house or dog run.

ELEMENTS THAT IMPACT YOUR OUTDOOR ENCLOSURE SELECTION

If this is the first time that you have shopped for an outdoor enclosure for your dog then you need to know that the three basic elements that your dog needs to be happy and safe are shelter, food, and water. These three things are the basis of its health and safety while staying outside. Providing food and water are simple enough needs to meet, however, the shelter element is one that will require some thought.

In order for the shelter to be safe and secure you will need to understand what type of dog you have. First the shelter will need to be big enough for the size of dog that you have. If you have a small dog then a smaller enclosure will be fine. However, if you have a large dog like a Boxer, then you will need to have a larger enclosure which provides enough space for the dog to walk around and get exercise. The second consideration that you need to take into consideration is how high your dog can jump. You will need to make sure that the enclosure is high enough so that the dog can't jump out of it, and you will want to make sure that if it has a top that your dog won't be able to jump on top of it when it is not in the enclosure. Finally the size of the links will also need to reflect how big your dog is. If you have a small dog you will need links that are small enough that the dog won't be able to escape through the links.

The other factors that will impact what type of outdoor dog enclosure that you buy will be your environmental and neighborhood characteristics. If you live in a cold climate your outdoor enclosure will need a dog house that provides shelter from the wind, rain, and snow as well as provide the dog with a heat source for really cold temperatures. In hot climates a roof on your kennel that provides shade will be required. If you are not sure what type of shelter is appropriate for your area you can always contact your local ASPCA for recommendations.
