    For extra measures a heavy floor matt can be hung over the doorway, I slice it up the middle so they can get in and out easy. I only hang it during really extreme weather like last year when we had many below zero days. When I rotate the straw I use the old straw on there immediate chain spot to some what keep them dry when the snow starts to melt. It can take a few days for snow to melt, making chain spot a little miserable. Its tuff managing a chain spot in the north east period.

    I use 1/4" rolled rubber I get at tsc and do the same thing, slits in it. Also works well to cover the roof instead of shingling. Especially for those dogs that like to be on top of their dog houses ( in the warmer months of course) This storm caught me off gaurd. Didnt expect it to get so cold already and will be putting it up tomorrow. I check on them every 3 to 5 hours and put my hand in the second chamber and its pretty warm when they been in it. The doorway makes it real toasty though. I use vasoline on their pawpads about every other day this time of year too. Help preventing chapping and cracking. All in all though, your right, its a pain in the ass to deal with for 5 months of the year.

    We thankfully missed the huge lake effect snow Buffalo got nailed with. I seen the video of the storm come across lake erie and it was crazy looking.

    Yea, I saw on cnn that is was rough up there near Buffalo. Our low was around 33 last night/this morning and we're supposed to be warming up a little from here on.

    Not as cold here, rain came through so temps rose. We need the rain bad, and I live that crisp air smell once it's gone.

    I'm hoping for a prompt visit, BK. I think it's warming up for us here this week so hopefully you won't need it.

    thanks homie, appreciate it. i'm hoping this issue is treated more urgently than something like a disposal. I keep the house between 65-70 anyways so nah i probably won't need it much. i'm just bitching to bitch...

    Not sure about the housing laws in Tx. But in Ca HEAT is a necessity, your AC can go out but not your heat.

    Yep, that's exactly how I found out. My AC took a dump and the landlord told me I was S.O.L , I ended up.paying a guy I knew under the table. Was the motor in the AC.

    I feel your pain, McCoy. When I want to feel better about my weather I just text my buddies in IL and make a comment about how cold it is down here. They then remind me that it's much colder up there lol. I feel better immediately lol.
