Question by noneofyourbusiness: Do Caucasian Ovcharka dogs suffer from heat just like huskies do ?
So here’s the thing. I have a 5 month old caucasian ovcharka puppy. He’s an outside dog.
Although i housetrained him, i decided to get him to sleep outside and spend most of the day with me inside.
Outside, He does have appropriate shelter (shade areas) and a terrific dog house (insulated, carpeted, with sleeping pads etc…).
By the time summer rolls in, he would be 1 year old and most likely weighing around 100+ pounds.
And i’m just worried he would suffer while staying out in the summer, especially for long periods of time when i’m not home(out at the beach).
It does get really hot in here in the summer and humid, especially with the global warming thing.
Winter is cold here, spring and fall are gorgeous.
Anyway, my question is: should i consider making him an inside dog???
And before you comment: if you know nothing about the breed or its demands or you havent had any real life experience with this breed, PLEASE DO NOT COMMENT or RESPOND.
Thanks in advance.
Peace.

They have no problem with the heat as long as there is sufficient shade and water. It sounds like you have a pretty normal temperature range. They do very well in extreme temperatures.
