I have a 36 x 12 slab with 3 kennels. I wash them out the back and it falls of the back of the slab. When I fed Diamond feed the odor was
real bad around the area. Switched feed for other reasons and the feed I feed now there is no odor. Same with my hog I keep in a pen. Was feeding him corn and table scraps and the odor was terrible. Switched to cattle creep feed witch is a plant based pellet and no more odor.

portable kenneles, the only way to go. I have my kennels on 2" pipe skids one 12' x 24' with 4 kennels, and  2 are 12'x16' with 2 kennels, move them about every 5 or 6 month.

I have sloped concrete floor pens with block walls.  The waste flows into an open top septic tank.  

I put 1 bag of pelletized "garden" lime in the tank each month.  Most of the waste decomposes, but the hair builds up and has to removed.  Once a year I dig the tank out and spread the waste in the pasture to mix naturally.  

The smell isn't bad, except for the hot rainy days.  The septic tank cleanout is usually done this time of year, and takes 2-3 hours.

I have a large dirt pen too and would like to hear about the micro-organisms.
