Title: Re: what finish for kennel floor Post by: T-Bob Parker on July 05, 2011, 05:08:02 pm Man I like skating rink slick concrete in the kennels but some guys like broom finish because it supposedly toughness their pads. I like slick cement cuz if you put down a good sealer you don't even need to apply any real pressure with the hose and the turds will float out the back.

Title: Re: what finish for kennel floor Post by: T-Bob Parker on July 05, 2011, 06:06:37 pm True dat bro, yall run some rough ground. The dog I got from Michael ran a toe smooth off when he was up there :D my big ol swamp pigs are pretty upset with yall northern boys ;)
Title: Re: what finish for kennel floor Post by: Peachcreek on July 06, 2011, 12:02:25 am I think just a bull float or frezno finish is best. The broom holds poo particles ;D and makes clean up hard and a burnt finish make it real slippery when wet.
where ya located purebred? I happen to know a decent concrete guy rolleyes Title: Re: what finish for kennel floor Post by: Bar W on July 06, 2011, 02:55:45 am U can do the forms for the slab pretty easy dig a little beam around the outside of the slab and put wire in it doesn't need to be real thick I do mine three inchs. At the new house I'm putting drains in so they can be tied into a sewer system and all the stink is washed away.
Title: Re: what finish for kennel floor Post by: Lone Star 88 on July 06, 2011, 06:28:25 pm I use shredded cedar mulch on dirt. You can get it for 20.00 a load. The cedar smells good and shovel it out after a few months and replace. Easy to pick up the poop.
Title: Re: what finish for kennel floor Post by: noelle on July 06, 2011, 06:45:33 pm That cedar also repels the fleas...
