R.A.W 1,987 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 i would say it all boils down to money . there's no point looking at bricks and welded mesh panels if your strapped for cash . how big is the area mate? Quote Link to post
Britishbull24 131 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Put some thought into your drainage pal. No point throwing your kennel up without giving it the best drainage you can. Will pay off big time in the future. 4 Quote Link to post
Hot Meat 3,109 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I agree id design them around my drainage and make sure that's done properly. Id rather have my dogs in tbe house than have them in kennels with shitty drains( no pun intended haha) no matter who tells you what. Krennels without proper drainage will smell in the endk Quote Link to post

Zerky 133 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Have the water, piss and shit going away from you when you wash the runs out, that's the main thing along with keeping the beds dry. I built mine just over a year ago and I don't think I would change any thing. I've got loads of photos on my camera of the build from start to finish, but I'm to dull to know how to put them up on here. lol 1 Quote Link to post

UcanRUNbutUcantHIDE 190 Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Here's mine I had 3 wooden pens and after 2 years dogs chewed them to bits. So replaced them with 5 galvonized runs and sheds with anti chew metal strips on all corners that were chewable. I also kept 2 of the old pens as a nursery. Built my concreting 2 foot above the rest of garden and ran it on a large slope towards my acco drains. Quote Link to post
