hose bibs are usually 1/2'' pipes size, normal working pressure in a house should be 40-60 lbs. you will lose about 3 lbs per 10' going vertical. you shouldn't have a problem with the pressure. run it underground so your lines don't freeze minimum 12''. pvc should work fine depends on the dog if hes gonna chew it or not. if anything run the underground in pvc and if you have any doubts put the pipe thats coming into the kennel in galv or copper. also place a valve in the main line going to the kennel... im a plumber...
