Dog box cooling

[DerekE]

You may have meant your post to be positive but it came across smart alec to me. If you really meant it positive, I apologize. In person I may have heard it differently. If not, the conversation would have stopped at "Whine Baby".
There are people that have a lot more to contribute to this site than you or I but won't because of the drama that sometimes comes up.

That is my last word but feel free to continue if you wish.
Good hunting to you.

I have not ever been to TX but I would guess it would be much like Red Bluff in the summer 115-120 is the norm. All I have ever done is open sides to allow as much air as can be and open doors I use expanded metal. And water on both sides with lots of fresh water to keep them full. I dont hunt my dogs much during the summer but road them to keep them in shape for bear hunting. I only road them in the mornings before it warms up but the ride home is during the heat of the day and have never had any trouble with a dog from the heat.

Good questions Derek, I have been wondering this also. I have always used a box that was skinned in 2x4 paneling and it worked well. I wanted to also to bring up color my black box will get painted white before the summer. Also I have a 6in pvc capped to carry water. I like the idea of the frozen milk jugs. keep the ideas coming.
