We have purchased 8 of these ASL dog palace dog houses several years ago and they are still in excellent condition. The dog houses came with all necessary hardware/screws and covers for the screws. They fit to together tightly and do not leak. I routinely tip the dog houses over end to end while cleaning them out and they do not come apart. The manufacture has assembly and informational videos on their website. Tip: spray corners and edges & doors with bitter apple to deter chewing by puppies or dogs that like to chew. We raised dogs and no chewing so far. There is a lifetime warranty on cracking or breaking.

I bought 2 for my dogs, and I'm so glad I did. Make sure you have someone to help you assemble it so the other person can help push them together with you. It's very easy to assemble. My dogs had no problem going in and out of their dog houses. Perfect for Winter. Keeps them warm inside.

We bought this for our dog just in case she had to be outside while we were away for more than 4 hours or so. It is 48"x31"x39" outside, 35"x24"x32" inside (I crawled in to measure) and the opening is 15 1/2"x18" and 12" off the ground to keep rain and snow from getting inside. It has plenty of room for a dog to stand up and turn around. If it gets dirty you just hose it off both inside and out. It is very light and easy to move as the insulation is small styrofoam beads sealed inside the walls. It is well constructed and would keep a dog warm in the winter if there was bedding inside and in the summer it would not be too hot.

We just brought home our 7 month old yellow lab puppy. Loved everything about this house. However, within 2 weeks, my pup was able to somehow chew a half dollar size hole in the interior wall and dug out a good bit of styrofoam bb’s. She also managed to get to the fan cord and chewed it in half. Bet it’s great for more settled dogs.

I have not had this dog house very long but my first impression is that it is of high quality. Certainly Sam's Club had the best price by far. You should read the assembly instructions entirely beforehand, especially if you are not installing the heater, to save yourself some unnecessary steps. Assembly could have been a little better and instructions could have been a little more clear. I must say that it took very little time to assemble it, though. The door needs to have a mechanism to keep it open when desired. I am anxious to see how the plastic holds up in the sun and cold. For a tight, insulated dog house with a floor you can't beat the price. I expect it will be pretty much maintenance free as well.

I use this for rescued puppies at 5+ weeks old depending on their size. I installed an electric "Hound Heater" which keeps it nice and warm inside in all weather. I ran the cord through the wall of the dog house. The insulation is actually small balls of foam so once I cut a hole they went everwhere. I put some spray foam in hole and cut it again for the cord to go through. The puppies have chewed on the corners some but it is tough and they have not done much damage. I built a wood ramp that helps small puppies go in and out. Some litters immediatelly go in and out the door and ramp. Some (especially really small ones) take some practice and training. They figure it out quicker when it is freezing outside but I do have to be careful they are all in for the night. I don't usually put bedding in so that they won't soil the inside. They learn real quick to go outside.

We?re as happy as we could be with this product, we actually bought 3 houses with heating pads. Unfortunately one of the pads failed after 3 months so I recommend you order an extra pad for reserve, I noticed immediately of the failure because one of my dogs wouldn?t go inside his house, it was a very cold evening so I checked it out and sure indeed the pad was cold, just ordered another one and will return the failed product, hope it?s under warranty and be replaced, I am afraid the others may fail too, hope not, other than this incident they?re great houses, my dogs love them!!

Just put it together. All the parts fit very well. Nice construction. Great buy.

Very happy with my dog house and so is my dog.

This is the second doghouse I've bought. It's a great product, dogs really like it.
