You can buy the tube heaters from screwfix with built in thermostat, n can buy the cages to fit around them to stop chewing.

Ive used various types of heating over the years radiators heatlamps & even tried under floor htg but ive found the thermostat tube heaters to be the best & never had a problem with them being chewed. I still keep a heat lamp with ceramic core plug instead of a bulb in it just for back up when its really cold after a night out. Atb

yep, great  they just take the damp out, and dogs will stretch  out in kernel , and not curl up and be stiff, you dont need a kennel over hot , just enough heat to keep the damp out , and if there got  skin/coat like a grey or whippet , put a coat on them. Actually  being out side  and not over hot, they grow thicker  coat even short hair dogs  deff  .

That’s not my pic above lol. I was going to put heaters in the box but isn’t much need as mine are fully insulated and the heater wouldn’t come on as doesn’t drop cold enough in there. This is mine they are brick n block then 50mm polystrene backed with foil bubble wrap cavity insulation boards. Then lined with waterproof caberdek floor boarding.
