Winter Supplies

I think I say this every year, but every year this time of the year seems to come sooner and sooner.  Along with the rest of the county, we had some cooler weather yesterday to help me open my eyes to the fact that winter is right around the corner.  I know I am prepared with my winter supplies but then again there is not much I have to do to get ready since we maybe have a few nights of freezing all winter.  However, if you are living in a cooler climate, I hope that you are prepared.  If you are not then now is a great time to get there.  It won't be long before that snow fall is more than just a dusting.  Sorry to remind you, lol.  There are some great supplies out there to help you and your pets get through this winter.  I have listed a few here for you.

• Dog House Heater:  If you have dogs that are out doors through the winter then please take the proper precautions to make sure they stay warm through the harsh winter cold.  This dog house heater is just one of many items that can give you piece of mind that your dogs will stay warm out in the cold winter air.
• Hound Heater Furnace:  The same concept as the dog house heater but this one can attach to the inside of the dog house by drilling some holes.  It also has an adjustable thermostat from 30 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit.  This is an easy instrument to install and use and again gives you much piece of mind knowing your dogs will be plenty warm.
• Thermal Bowls:  If you have struggled through the winter with constantly having to deal with water bowls that have frozen over then this is for you.  You simply plug the bowl in to keep the water from freezing so all you have to do is keep the bowl filled and fresh this winter.  These bowls come in different sizes and also in stainless steel thermal bowls.
• Thermo Hoses:  I remember my winters up north.  My father used to bring in the hoses every winter before any freezes to prevent the hose from freezing up and then if we should happen to have a decent sunny day he would drag one out so he could wash the salt off the cars.  Ugh,  what a pain.  With these hoses, you don't have to deal with that.  Just plug the hose in and within twenty minutes you have water flowing through your hose.  The hoses do come in 20, 40, and 60 foot sizes.
• Hose Heater:  Another great product to prevent your hoses from freezing.  This has been tested in winter temperatures of 30 below.  This product is not only convenient but smart.  It will prevent your hose from freezing, shut itself off during warmer weather, and uses less energy than a standard light bulb.  How can you go wrong?  
• Heated Dog Beds and Covers:  If you are not prepared to buy a furnace or dog house heater than this may be another option for you.  These heated dog beds and covers are another way to ensure that your dogs will stay warm enough through those long winter nights.

This is just a short list of some items that may make your life easier this winter.  The dog products are all safe products to use.  They come with features such as covers over cords to protect the dogs from electrical shock and in the case of the furnace they have a special cover over the unit that does not heat up so even if your dog lies against it, they will not get burned.  At Bad Dog Supplies we would not recommend these products if we didn't think they were safe for your dogs.  If you have any other products that you have used in the past that have worked really well then please share it with us so we can pass that information along.  When it comes down to it, the most important thing is making sure that your dogs are comfortable and safe this winter.  

We carry the items listed above at Bad Dog Supplies and we would be more than happy to help you in any way we can with the items we carry as well as questions about products or items that you are looking for but do not see on our site.  Just let us know how we can help.  Also, if you check out our sale items page, many of the items listed above are currently on sale for great prices.
