Turn the thermostat down or leave it at 60?

[lisaross]

I also have a small dog, so i don't want him to freeze while we are not home!

I have gas heat - i had it set to 62 when we sleep but just changed it to 60 wonder if 2 degrees will make a difference for 8 hours each night?

During the day when not home i leave it to 65 and 70 when we are home - at times i move it up to 72!

My husband would have it at 74 all the time if i'd let him or if he knew how to program the thermastat.

It's definitely not cost effective to heat a whole house for a tiny dog!
