Canine Climate Control



As a human being, I am very grateful to William Havilland Carrier for inventing the miraculous machine we know as the air conditioner. This 100-plus degree summer wouldn’t be bearable without an AC in my house, but I’ve learned that humans aren’t the only ones who suffer when the dog days of summer hit with full force. Dogs obviously can’t sweat and have much more body hair than humans, so they’re especially susceptible to the dangers of heat stroke in the summer. You can use Lowes coupons to protect your pet’s health by installing an AC in his dog house this summer.

You might think that sounds crazy – who gives their dog their own personal air conditioner? But canine climate control isn’t just for the pampered pooches of the rich and famous, it’s a relatively inexpensive way to ensure the health and safety of a loved one as temperatures rise. According to the Humane Society of the United States, a dog house does not provide adequate refuge from summer’s soaring temperatures because the lack of air circulation in these structures can cause the temperature in the doghouse to swell high above the temperature of the outside environment – and if you won’t be home during the day to let your dog come in and enjoy the cool air in your home, using Lowes coupons to get a small, cost-efficient air conditioner for his house is the best way to protect him from the summer heat. You can find instructions for how to easily install an ac for your dog here.
