Since I've gotten a few requests, here is the doghouse (sorry for the blur, but it's hard taking a photo through a fence, and I'm not trying to play with the dogs right now - I have an exam coming up this week).
We bought the doghouse from Tractor Supply in Anniston. It did not come with the flap on the front - that is a doormat we bought from Roses in Anniston. It's thick, but flappy and heavy enough to flop back down in a mostly closed position. The top of the doghouse opens and there were gaps between the top and the rest of the house, so we used extra thick weather-stripping to fill that in.
Below is a link to the heater we bought. It has a thermostat and we checked - it does warm the house up nicely. It does need power; ours is plugged into the little building behind the dog house. You could also run an extension cord if you needed to.
The hay is from Lowe's. It's recently come to my attention that straw would be better, but I haven't had a minute to research the difference between hay and straw and where you might find straw.
If you have any other questions, feel free to comment and let me know.
