After many years of having the dogs on dirt / gravel, I now have all mine on concrete.

While I will disagree that it is easier to clean, I will say that the final product is cleaner and healthier when the work is complete.  When I had my dogs on gravel, I spent about 30 minutes twice a week picking up solid poop.  Now on the concrete, I spend about 45 minutes a day washing down.

More work, but worth it in my opinion.

(Plus I no longer have to deal with the occasional dog that out of the blue decides to dig, chew, jump or crawl out)

To have a concrete slab poured, you can usually figure $3.50 - $4.00 / sf.
