Warmer doghouse
Doghouse "weathervanes" so cold wind will not blow in the door | |
Doghouses often have large entry doors that allow cold winds, from ever changing directions, to enter the enclosure.
I suggest attaching a windmill-like "vertical stabilizer" to the roof of the doghouse. The doghouse would be mounted on a "lazy susan" type of ball bearing rotating base. With enough
wind, the entry door would rotate to the downwind side of the cold wind.
A more complicated variation would rotate the doghouse via an electric motor controlled by wind direction sensors.
A negative aspect may be that the animal would be disturbed by the movement. But, after they got used to the benefits, hopefully not.
Idea fetch.

My dog will turn 14 next year. She is the cutest old dog alive (still) and just got a tumor removed from an organ I can't name because I don't know the word in english... and she could use one of these doghouses for recovery. + for caring about the little details in dog's lives. |
