Just a thought right now though.

I built out of wood because of cost savings and the grade that I built on really only allowed for a elevated deck. I really enjoy having them and my dogs like them too.

Title: Re: Kennel Plans Post by: southtexasff on December 09, 2010, 06:44:17 pm Matt_Aggie04 what size of planks did you use for your flooring? What is the demensions and how much?
Title: Re: Kennel Plans Post by: Diamond G on December 09, 2010, 07:26:27 pm Where are the doors on these pens ? The pannel is cut bigger than the opening and wired on one side. Held closed with a snap.Title: Re: Kennel Plans Post by: Diamond G on December 09, 2010, 07:34:06 pm I can also move mine with a the loader of my tractor if I feel the need. I have moved one set when I made my yard bigger. I also loaded a set that I sold. The others are really nice. I cant justify spending that much money. Good luck with what ever you do.
Title: Re: Kennel Plans Post by: matt_aggie04 on December 09, 2010, 09:31:48 pm Matt_Aggie04 what size of planks did you use for your flooring? What is the demensions and how much? 2"x8" for the whole deck it is pretty stout. That deck is 72' long and 14' deep. Title: Re: Kennel Plans Post by: zachW on December 11, 2010, 05:47:08 pm I got 16 foot 4x4 panels I think there great if they fight threw that then I don't want em on my yard, right now I just got t post at every Courbet it works just ain't that great but works
Title: Re: Kennel Plans Post by: chainrated on December 13, 2010, 07:51:32 am One big thing you want to remember is to put as much slope on your floor as possible. It makes washing your kennels out a LOT easier..
