I just poured a 20'X20' slab and spent just under $500.....I had beams dug un the perimeter about 6" deep but the top is about 3" thick (filled with sand)......well worth it

Raised kennel floors is the way to go mine are built just like Monterias. Nice an easy to spray out with a water hose an my flea problem went away.

I use wood floors. I have 2" *12"*8' treated boards. I have had them for 2 years now and they still look good, I also have a tin top on mine to. But if I would have had the money at the time I would have used cement floors.

one yard of concrete will cover 80 square feet at 4 inchs thick , basically a 8x10 . 3000 psi concrete 82 dollars a yard so if you set the forms yourself & pour yourself thats pretty reasonable and anyone can strike concrete off good enought for a dog to poop on

I was off on my math........... my bad.
I have dirt right now. Hate it. Dog dont crap much at all but the dust kills me. Plus I have 20ga tub that the dogs get into to cool off. The water stays muddy for the most part. Soon as we close on the house I will form up a 50x11 slab for the kennels. I would hate to use rock b/c I think it would be a pain in the butt to pick up the crap. If you want something that you can take with you then look at a raised wood floor like Steve(monteria). I plan to be in the house 7-10 years at the min. The investment of 1k for the slab is a drop in the bucket.
