I'm about to start building my kennel this weekend...if it all works out as planned I won't have to spend a dime  My dad is a welder and has picked up alot of good sized "scrap" metal from different rigs and pipelines....and we have tons of left over tin from building our shop...I also showed sheep in high school a few years ago and we have 6 16ft long 4 ft tall panels that I will probably stack together and weld for a run.... What is the narrowest you guys would make a pen? |

Thanks to some generous doggers I acquired almost all the chain link tearing down old stuff. Did the pad myself to take out the labor and the roof. It is really worth every penny, think I got out under $1000. |

I will look it up to be sure...but, if the bills get passed that are in committe right now, kennels "BY LAW" will have to be 150 sq.ft.
Call your rep. is you think its none of there business.
