Hound Heater Classic
January 5, 2023
These heaters were a life saver during the recent unusually cold weather in central MS. Our girls were snug as bugs in their houses. They were easy to install. We've had no problems thus far.
Pros
  • Fast delivery
  • Easy to install

Hound Heater Classic with Thermo Cube
December 18, 2020
I installed three of these in 3 dog houses and they are working fine so far. I had a problem with one termo cube that was misconstructed. It would not plug into a standard 3-prong outlet. Gun Dog Supply promply sent a replacement, all before freezing weather set in.
Pros
  • Fairly easy to install if you can semi-fit into the dog house to attach it. I'm slim but a large or obese or handicapped person may have some trouble here unless the dog house top comes off easily. Also, you may need some sort of door covering if your dog house entry is open to keep the heat in. I made improvised doors by folding a strip of 4 mil plastic and cutting overlapping strips that close fairly well when the dog enters or exists. Leave this as a single unit with an uncut portion at the top and attach these to the inside of the dog house with two or three screws above the door opening. I tried to order these "doors" ready made but everywhere I looked they were out of stock or on back order.
Cons
  • None really. I'm happy with them.

Not as hot as I had hoped but it definitely keeps my GSP from freezing outside. Very strong material, which keeps my destructive pooch from breaking it. I put the cord in a metal pipe so my dog doesn't get to it. I would recommend it to anyone with outside dogs, who wants a simple but good warm heater.
Pros
  • Safe for wood and plastic dog houses.
Cons
  • Difficult to install if you have a hard plastic dog house.

Easy installation, paired it with Thermostat brick to save on electricity when it's warm out. Good enough to take the edge off in the dog house.

Heater is working great. Neglected to purchase a thermocube with it. Would recommend purchasing it together.

We are taking care of two feral cats and worry about them when the temps drop in Indiana. This heater is great! When they aren't inside keeping warm they are sitting on top of the house still feeling the heat!

Does everything it says it will. Easy to install, and my old dog is happy and active when she comes out of the doghouse. I will be buying some more of these over time.

Works okay. Thinking about just getting a forced air heater to replace it.

The Hound Heater Classic works perfectly in our 8 cubic foot cat house. It is plugged into a thermostatically controlled receptacle which turns the heater on at 35 degrees and off at 45 degrees. It takes enough of the chill off that the room remains comfortable. In the past 24 hours, the kitty has spent 17 hours in the cat house keeping warm. I would recommend the Classic over the Deluxe heater if your space is 16 cubic feet or less.

This heater was the best for my buck. I did a lot of research before buying. Installed in custom doghouse and seems to work good. Time will tell, but I am happy with the purchase. Fast shipping too.

Seems to work well with the thermo cube. It keeps the dog box warm enough for the hound to not have to endure the bitter cold nights of winter we will be having.

Great product. My guy tears everything apart and he likes to be warm. Was -15 deg F outside 55 deg F inside the dog house. And he didn't tear it apart!

My boys love their new heater. We live in Florida, so it doesn't get below 20 very often, but when it does get chilly they are in doggy heaven with their new heater in their house. Thank you for the excellent service and product. It is exactly what we expected.

I have 3 heaters. All work well. My 3 doghouses are insulated with a front plastic door and a boxed in entrance. I recommend these heaters only for maximum of 16 cubic feet.

This little heater seems to work fairly well - easy to install. It was perhaps a little small for my doghouse but seems to be providing enough heat similar to installing a medium watt light bulb inside of the house.

The Hound Heater Classic heater is doing a great job of keeping my dog comfortable. The temperatures the last few nights have been really cold but her house is comfortably warm. I don't have to worry about her being cold nor do I have to worry about my doghouse catching fire.

Doesn't put out as much heat as I was hoping, but I like the size and seems to be built very sturdy.
