Do you heat the house for your dog?

That face is priceless!!!
When we had a 70 pound golden retriever, we let the house cool down in the winter to the low 60's during the day (I am in MN so it gets very cold). Now however, I have a 7 pound rat terrier with no hair on her underside. She shakes when it's 75 so we do have to keep the house warmer during the day than we used to. We let it cool down overnight somewhat, because she sleeps under the covers with us and stays plenty warm there.

Not only do I keep the temp. so that my dog will be comfortable I also turn the TV or radio on, leave a few lights on (in case it's dark when I get home), and pull up the blinds some so she can look out the window from her perch at the front yard. When I leave in the morning I even tuck her into her dog bed! It's so sad. Now if only she'd let me dress her...
