Dog Palace CRB Insulated Heated Dog House
In a Nutshell
- Large, insulated space for big dogs.
- Efficiency from the heated but the component keeps failing.
- Mixed reviews could require modifications to keep dogs at ease
Quick Verdict
The Dog Palace CRB Insulated Heated Dog House is spacious, roomy, and keeps large dogs from hitting ceilings. It is sturdy with great room for even two large dogs. The heater and the doghouse don't seem to work as a unit. The doors can frighten dogs from entering as there are no straps and seems lurching all the way back.

"Extremely easy to put together. Lab dog fit comfortably in it. Also a great house for cats. My wife looked around on the internet & found the best deal for this particular item at Chewy. This company has GREAT service from the time of purchase to delivery!"
"I needed this house for my large dog when she wants to spend a lot of time outside. The house arrived in two large boxes. Neither box was damaged or dented in any way. Both the roof and one siding piece arrived with large dents that cannot be fixed because it is insulated so I can’t push them out...."
