Never thought about ventilating the dog house, but.....duh! Also, if you crate your animal at night and cover the crate with a blanket - don't when it is hot! Put up a cardboard wall around the crate using an old box. Leave the top open and a gap where the ends meet to aid in air flow. Better yet, put the crate outside in a safe place for the night so your pet can enjoy the cooler air overnight. These are great ideas; thank you for offereing them!
