I worry too Stormy.  If I have a winter litter I use 2-3 oscillating  
ceramic heaters, outside of the puppy pen w/ heating pads under the sterilon  
that lines the whelping box.  I also put inexpensive thermometers zip  stripped 
to the puppy pen at different heights so that I can double check temps  at 
a glance.

I know  that there have been some case of the reflector lamps bursting  
and  starting fires.   I DID use one before I learned of that, but  had  
JIm put a screen over the end, so if it did burst, the shards  would  
fall on the screen.  I still worried a lot (Had a  November litter.)


I am now using an oil filled radiator type space  heater that turned  
off if tipped for my adult dogs in their  area.  It warms up within  
10-15 feet in the cold garage,  thermostat controlled to go on if the  
area is below 45º, and I have  it OUTSIDE their area just in case.



Too many stories of fires  and I'm a real worry wart.  And I KNOW that  
these dogs can  handle temperatures MUCH lower that 45º, but I also am  
a dog  spoiler:-) :-)
