It is amazing what they can survive after you know what’s optimal for them! You are right abou the low wattage RHP and the Kane mat being enough for what you’ve got right now... but..... if your ever planning on upgrading, you don’t want to have to buy this stuff again. You can control the temperatures of both with a thermostat. There are several companies that make good digital ones for <$30.... it will alleviate any fears you have of overheating.
so you're saying that I can't use this as a permanent home for him? he is already 13 years old and only 2 and a half pounds. We live in the mountains and have coyotes roaming around. That's why I don't keep my dogs outside. Of course he'll get time outside but supervised time. I want to buy what I need now and not have to upgrade later. That will cost me more. Should I get a higher wattage and just control the temp with a thermostat?
