Hey that's cool. Did you have to customize it much, or was it ready to go with the door flaps and all.

Website is hatneedle.com. It's called "extreme outback log cabin", Small. You have to assemble it, but it is beyond easy. Only about 10 screws to put together, no cutting. The flap is extra and is called "outback dog house door", small. And that was easy to install as well, 2 screws. I didnt screw on the roof, Bc I like to take it off to check on turtles. Plus the floor is not solid, so I can take a hose to it and clean it and not worry about proper drainage. But roof fits on perfectly so it isn't a hassle to take on and off. The heater is called "hound heater dog house furnace." Turtles all slept in it last night. They loved it.

Do you plan to keep the floor as just the wood? Or have you considered throwing some dirt in there?

I like the look of the house. Very nice.

I will most likely put cypress mulch or some sort of substrate on the floor. Yesterday was the first day I assembled it, and I didnt realize how quickly they would come to enjoy it. I never got a chance to fill it with substrate.

Do you have any pictures of it of your cold side with hound heater? I haven't hooked the heater up yet.
