I have thought of doing the same thing but i was worried about the smell over time of pee going through the cracks. have you noticed anything like that? or someone else that has that type setup?
Title: Re: New kennels Post by: Striker55 on September 09, 2011, 08:54:04 pm Yes the kennels are 5x10 iv had them up for a month and there easy to clean and don't smell yet but I'll keep u informed. I'm not finished yet still need some dog houses and fans/heat lamps.
Title: Re: New kennels Post by: Striker55 on September 09, 2011, 09:00:29 pm Mike can I ask where you got those shade cloth??

Title: Re: New kennels Post by: tnhillbilly on September 09, 2011, 10:15:17 pm Ive been needing some kennels, and want to build some very similar, but stopped at tsc today and priced them, and at $550 per kennel, guess ill have to find another way, unless I can find them cheaper.
Title: Re: New kennels Post by: Striker55 on September 09, 2011, 10:38:17 pm I got those at 330 and third one was cheaper due to u just need to buy the door and one panel.
Title: Re: New kennels Post by: tnhillbilly on September 09, 2011, 10:50:25 pm I could probly stand that, bout fell out of my truck when I seen the price on that one today, cause I would like to have at least 6.

Title: Re: New kennels Post by: tnhillbilly on September 10, 2011, 12:23:51 am Thats even better, thanks. Ill be sure to watch for it.
Title: Re: New kennels Post by: hogaholicswife on September 10, 2011, 09:45:05 am Those are definately some nice pens, we got away from wood floors a while back but I have always wondered if you sealed would it help in washing them out?
Title: Re: New kennels Post by: Striker55 on September 10, 2011, 11:51:09 am I think so I was going to seal them this weekend.
Title: Re: New kennels Post by: RL3 on September 10, 2011, 04:30:11 pm Them are some nice kennels sir.
Title: Re: New kennels Post by: Rodeo on September 10, 2011, 09:52:45 pm How do you clean your pens since they are up on a platform. And those are some good-looking pens
Title: Re: New kennels Post by: Striker55 on September 10, 2011, 10:51:34 pm With a float shovel it works great .
Title: Re: New kennels Post by: brandeek1 on September 11, 2011, 01:06:24 am We have 12 kennels (5x10) that we built out of galvanized pipe n we put 4x4 wire panels on them front n back. Chain link in Middles. We put dog houses outside kennels n attached them so dogs have full use of kennel. Gates have latches we can lock n roof is tin. We installed a misting system this year because of the heat. It's on a timer. Ours r on river sand/pea gravel mix. Great. No smell. Use horse rake for poop. I'll take pics tomorrow n post them.
