Title: Kennels Post by: ROCKIN ROO HOG DOGS on February 08, 2009, 09:48:35 pm Here are some kennels i whacked together using 10 x 10 tractor supply pens and a tin roof to keep the rain off and supply shade in the summer,the dogs seem to like it

Title: Re: Kennels Post by: BarrNinja on February 09, 2009, 11:16:57 am I was actually thinking about doing the same thing since I already own one TS kennel. I think I will give it a try.
Thanks for sharing. Title: Re: Kennels Post by: uglydog on February 09, 2009, 11:43:12 am what do you have on the ground to prevent digging out?
Title: Re: Kennels Post by: ROCKIN ROO HOG DOGS on February 09, 2009, 12:16:28 pm The roof is angled towards the back.There is a 4x4 across the front of each pen and then a 2x4 across the middle of each pen and then the back is screwed directly to the panel.
Krystal,i always put my pups in them at 6 weeks of age,they have never tried to dig out in 2-3 years,but that is the plus side of only having a few dogs,they get out for exercise EVERY day,rain,hail or shine so not too much pent up energy to put towards digging. Title: Re: Kennels Post by: shawn on February 09, 2009, 02:07:16 pm ive seen cattle panels wired to the bottom of kennels to prevent digging out, put hay or some cedar chips or something on top of the panels
i like the way you did the roofs, simple and effective |
