mine are 8x16 one dog to a kennel i have a couple of larger ones for a gyp with pups or an older litter . but on a note when building kennels the size where you keep dogs has alot to do with how often you hunt . hunt a bunch smaller kennels . hunt a little larger kennels . when we were haveing alot of trouble with the humane sociatys [ not that we're not now ] in their legislation the proposed making it mandetory that a kennel was 10 x 15 per dog .[ wich would have made all the shelter facilitys absolite i might add ] . they have not givin up on all this . might be something to consider when putting money into a permant structure . you can make the kennels smaller but be able to , if the need arises, be able to remodel and keep in compliance with any new laws that might arise .

I don't feel a dog will get any more exercise in a 6 x 8 then it would in a 10 x 10. Write the cost and see what the difference is.

My kennels are 5 x 10 with a divider gate so they can double as "2" 5x5 kennels......I hunt at least twice a week and most of the time three times a week so dogs get plenty of excercise.
