Humidify Your House With Your Furnace
Our house is dry in the winter in Ohio, but my dog is afraid of the humidifier. I solved this problem by purchasing a couple of the plastic-coated wire racks used for organizing cabinets, and setting it over our floor registers for our forced-air furnace. I then place a damp, but not dripping wet, hand towel over the rack. As the furnace air blows, it forces moisture into the air. It works quite well, and it doesn't scare our dog. You may need to do this once or twice a day, depending on how often the furnace is running. It is also one less appliance that needs to be plugged in and using more electricity. If you still use dryer sheets (I no longer do), you can weave one of these through the rack and place the towel on top if it. It will act as an air freshener as well!
