Basically it's a coffee can with a light bulb in it. Had to wire an outdoor outlet and string a wire out to the pen but it's in place and looks like it will do the trick. Just need some cold weather to put it to the test.

dog house heater
My previous dog was a collie and had a serious coat of fur. I never did see her shiver. But not so my new dog, a black lab mix with sleek short hair. Since we are sometimes gone for the day and need to put the dog in her pen I thought a little additional heat in the doghouse was in order. A little internet searching turned up a homemade solution: http://www.nodakoutdoors.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=46653

oh man, in pictures Bonnie puts Lucy to shame! She looks like a lion/wolf goddess and Luce looks like a doofus. Don't tell her I said that though...
yeah, you're right. There's a reason Lucy is getting nicknames like Stumpy and Flaps. Doofus works too.
